Going to be one neat trick, since Lincoln is currently going thru an
overhaul at Bremerton:

NNS060831-12. USS Abraham Lincoln Arrives at NBK for Overhaul
By Mass Communication Specialist 1st Class Bruce McVicar, Northwest
Region Fleet Public Affairs
BREMERTON, Wash. (NNS) -- USS Abraham Lincoln (CVN 72) arrived at Naval
Base Kitsap (NBK) in Bremerton from Naval Station Everett for a
scheduled six-month maintenance period at Puget Sound Naval Shipyard,
Aug. 29.
...
end
It's done with a paint brush. Bad memory but it is the Enterprise that
is on station to be releived by Eisenhower.
W/ Enterprise due back at Norfolk on or around 3 November (having
deployed 3 May) ...
So it's a quick transfer of information or personnel and return.
