Demobilization trims Midway crew for Arctic test
The Midway carrier faces a large turnover as demobilization trims its crew. About 1,800 have left since commissioning, leaving only a fraction of specialists aboard. The ship, sailing to the Arctic, risks training gaps and engine-start issues in cold weather. The Franklin D. Roosevelt faces a similar reduction of roughly 900 experienced men.
