NORFOLK, Va. — At least one ship of the Bataan Expeditionary Strike Group returned to Norfolk on Tuesday quite a bit lighter than when she left. Thanks to a relentless fitness program aboard the destroyer Nitze, the 270-member crew of that ship lost 1,900 pounds during a six-month deployment to the Middle East.
“We had a huge fitness plan on board,” with boxing, aerobics and martial arts classes five times a day, said Nitze commanding officer Cmdr. Robert Hein.
