    USS
    Ronald Reagan
    CVN-76 is a
    Nimitz
    -class
    nuclear-powered
    supercarrier
    in the service of the
    United States Navy
    . The ninth ship of her class, she is named in honor of former President
    Ronald Reagan
    , President of the United States from 1981 to 1989. Upon her
    christening
    in 2001, she was the first ship to be named for a former president still living at the time.
    As of May 2012 the ship is operationally part of
    Carrier Strike Group Nine
    and administratively under the command of Commander, Naval Air Forces Pacific/
    Commander, Naval Air Forces
    . The two administrative titles actually refer to one command carrying out two functions.
    The cover is cancelled with a well-struck pictorial postmark on 12 July 2003 at Norfolk, VA 23511 and is franked with a 37c 'Flag' stamp.
    Overall cover condition is very good. The cover is a standard No. 6-3/4, 3-5/8 x 6-1/2". The blue around the edge is part of the background.
    I accept PAYPAL.
