USS THEODORE ROOSEVELT
U.S. Navy
USS *Theodore Roosevelt* (CVN-71) is a Nimitz-class nuclear-powered aircraft carrier commissioned into the United States Navy in October 1986. Named after the 26th President of the United States, the ship has played a critical role in multiple military operations, including Operation Desert Storm in 1991 and Operation Enduring Freedom after the September 11 attacks. The *Theodore Roosevelt* has demonstrated the Navy's global reach by conducting deployments in the Mediterranean, Persian Gulf, and Indo-Pacific regions. Over its service, the carrier has undergone several overhauls and modernization efforts to maintain its combat readiness and continues to serve as a vital asset in U.S. naval power projection.
