Description
A giant US Navy warship, carrying over 5,000 sailors, arrived in the UK for a five-day visit on 22nd March 2015.
Hundreds of people lined the coast as the 100,000-tonne ship USS Theodore Roosevelt anchored off Stokes Bay, Gosport, in the Solent off the Isle of Wight in Hampshire, because it is too big to sail into Portsmouth Harbour.
The 1,092ft-long carrier has 52226 crew and is making its first port of call in its round-the-world deployment.
Its sailors were due to disembark the ship for shore leave later this week.
