Seems like just the other day when I saw the J.C. Stennis on its way out of the Puget Sound into the Juan de Fuca Strait. Quick trip.

Things are heating up. My son told me on Monday that his deployment has been extended. God and the military are the only ones that know how long. God be with all our men and women in harm's way. I'm proud but nervous.

The Stennis needs to deal with members of the Moro Islamic Liberation Front and other things

"Quick trip"
When she's opened up there's not an escort who can match her speed and endurance.
If she crossed as quickly as you suspect, she put off a very rigorous flight ops schedule (20 hours/day) and they only do that for a very good reason.

IIRC, the chop point is longitude 180, so the group is in the 7th Fleet AOR but still pretty far east. It's not like they're off the coast of Japan right now.
