They were originally supposed to be back in San Diego in August. They were very delayed from original deployment schedule - the ship was in bad shape when they got it out of the shipyard. Had to get civilian escort from WA to ÇA because they only had 1/4 engines working.
But with China/Taiwan supposedly heating up, it is definitely very odd.
They are heading to the Mediterranean from South Korea.
That’s very odd. Of course, my knowledge is from the mid 90s when TR was a Norfolk carrier, so your mileage may vary 🫡
