AMERICA departed Norfolk in May, 1981, following sea trials, for pre-deployment training. Her training was exer- cised in the Caribbean operating area and included a four (4) day port call to the tropical paradise, St. Thomas, Virgin Islands. After an appreciated six weeks in-port Norfolk, AMER- ICA departed 22 August to participate in the joint NATO exercise, United Effort and Northern Wedding 82. The track across the Atlantic encountered many challenges with grow- ing complexity as real world Soviet interest grew in intensi- ty. The Carrier Battle Group entered the North Sea from the southern Norwegian Sea and provided air cover for a major amphibious landing on Jutland. Port calls in Edinburgh, Scotland and Portsmouth, England gave the crew a respite in a very hectic schedule. Top, Middle and Left: Prom night on AMERICA . . .
