It's been 14 years ago since the US bases left and the USS George Washington came to port. She arrived last Tuesday.

Selected members from the media were invited and toured by Urban. Water taxis were docked at the MOA (Mall of Asia).

USS George Washington (CVN 73) is the sixth ship in the Nimitz class of nuclear-powered supercarriers, and the fourth United States Navy ship to be named after George Washington, first President of the United States. She was built by Newport News Shipbuilding and was commissioned July 4, 1992.
