“USS Abraham Lincoln (CVN-72) sails in formation during Rim of the Pacific (RIMPAC) 2022, July 28, 2022. US Navy Photo” https://news.usni.org/wp-content/upload ... 2121-2.jpg [SPOT 6 of 10 USMC F-35Cs from VMFA-314 embarked]

A lot of photos are sent to me via e-mail without any supporting information, this is one of them: "VMFA-314 F-35C Lightning II launches from USS Abraham Lincoln CVN-72"

Thanks for info.
