PORTSMOUTH, Va. (WAVY) – The crew of the USS Gerald R. Ford earned some new hardware as the five thousand sailors on board got their hands on a big award. The Battenberg Cup is a symbol of operational excellence. Every year it’s awarded to the best ship or submarine in the Navy Atlantic Fleet and the Ford earned it for being first in its class.
