USS Enterprise returning from its final voyage

NORFOLK

--The world's first nuclear-powered aircraft carrier is returning from its final deployment.

The Navy says the USS Enterprise is scheduled to return to its home port in Norfolk on Sunday. The ship will be deactivated in December after more than 50 years of service.

The ship has participated in every major conflict since the Cuban Missile Crisis.
