USS Nimitz heads into 16-mo. overhaul in 2015

The US Navy fleet’s longest-serving flattop is slated for a much-needed break from the deployment cycle next year, when it enters a 16-month maintenance period.
Navy Personnel Command is working to make the transition as smooth as possible.
Nimitz returned from its most recent deployment with Carrier Strike Group 11 in December 2013, following nine months cruising 5th, 6th and 7th Fleets.
