Navy to Deploy Carrier Groups to Test Rapid Readiness
2004-05-29
A major exercise soon to be underway will have a large part of the Navy fleet deploying out of Norfolk. WAVY News 10 has learned the Navy is sending seven carrier strike groups out to sea.
I’m surprised by the size of this
The exercise is designed to test the Navy’s new rapid deployment readiness. Several Norfolk-based carrier strike groups will participate. The USS George Washington is already deployed. Two others, the USS Enterprise and USS Harry S Truman will leave soon. Other carriers involved in the exercise include the USS John F. Kennedy, the USS John S. Stennis, and the USS Ronald Reagan - which left Norfolk on Thursday. While the Navy won’t say where the seven carrier groups are going, the carriers not already deployed are expected to be gone for only one to two months.
