Ford, after nearly a year-long deployment that included combat preparations in the Caribbean and Middle East, is set to return to Norfolk, Virginia, amidst significant challenges faced by its crew, including a major fire, food shortages, and strains on morale, marking the longest deployment for a U.S. warship since the Vietnam War. #USSGeraldRFord #NavyDeployment #MilitaryFamily #US #VE #IR #HR
