The Norfolk-based carrier USS Harry S. Truman has returned to duty following a crash with a smaller ship while in the Mediterranean Sea.

The U.S. Navy aircraft carrier USS Harry S. Truman is back at sea conducting routine operations after a week or so in port in Greece for repairs. Truman collided with the cargo ship M/V Besiktas-M in the Mediterranean Sea off the coast of Egypt’s Port Said earlier this month.

Sailors worked with maintenance personnel, the Navy’s shipyard in Norfolk, Va., and a Greek ship repair company to assess damage, develop a repair plan, and restore weathertight integrity to the ship following a collision on Feb.

Capt. Dave Snowden, who was in charge of the USS Harry S. Truman when the aircraft carrier collided with a merchant ship, has been fired, the Navy announced.
