Chief petty officers (CPO) and CPO selectees assigned to Nimitz-class aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln (CVN 72) joined hundreds of other CPOs and selectees during a CPO 365 Phase II training event at the USS Wisconsin (BB 64) and Nauticus museum in Norfolk, Va., Aug. 18.
The trip was part of the six-week season during which CPO selectees will learn about the Navy’s history and heritage, leadership skills, and the power of being part of the chief’s mess.
Lincoln is the fifth ship of the Nimitz-class to undergo a refueling complex overhaul (RCOH), a major life-cycle milestone. Once RCOH is complete, Lincoln will be one of the most modern and technologically advanced Nimitz-class aircraft carriers in the fleet and will continue to be a vital part of the nation’s defense.
