Da Nang, Vietnam (July 28, 2007) - The Arleigh Burke class guided missile destroyer USS Curtis Wilbur (DDG 54) enters the Vietnamese port of Da Nang, Vietnam. Curtis Wilbur is visiting for a scheduled port visit, and is the second U.S. Navy ship to visit Vietnam and the first to visit Da Nang since 1973. These visits symbolize the continuation of normalized relations between the United States and Vietnam. Curtis Wilbur is part of the Kitty Hawk Carrier Strike Group (CSG), the Navy's only permanently forward deployed carrier strike group, currently operating from Yokosuka, Japan.
