That is a Jane's Fighting Ships Acronym...what it means, I don't know because it has it listed for carriers also.

PRODUCT TITLE : JANE'S FIGHTING SHIPS
EDITION : 1990-91
COUNTRY : UNITED STATES OF AMERICA
SHIP TYPE : AIRCRAFT CARRIERS
PAGE NUMBER : 734
CLASS : 1 ENTERPRISE CLASS (CVN)
HULLS :
Name............. ENTERPRISE
No............... CVN 65
Builders......... Newport News Shipbuilding & Dry Dock Co
Laid down........ 4 Feb 1958
Launched......... 24 Sep 1960
Commissioned..... 25 Nov 1961
F/S.............. PA

In my opinion:

F/S: F-- I don't Know!:damn:
S stands for "status"

AA: first A stands for "Atlantic"
second A-- I don't know!:damn:

PA: P stands for "Pacific"
A-- I still don't know!:damn:

I am not sure if these answers are correct or not, it's just my opinion.╮(﹀_﹀")╭

Has entries for all the US carriers (towards the bottom) amongst other vessels worldwide..

Only the large navy US has the F/S tag, and it can have the following values (at least)
AA
PA
Bldg
SLEP
SLEP/AA

Which suggests F/S stands for Fleet Status or similar - Fleet Service?.
AA ~ Atlantic Area (ie east coast)
PA ~ Pacific Area (ie west coast)
Bldg = Under construction.
SLEP = Service Life Enhancement Programme
