Ike transits Suez at night, no photos? Hmmm.

Not a single picture of the USS Eisenhower transiting the Suez Canal is circulating.

That's legit suspicious, especially when they crossed the canal during the night...

The crew probably threatened to mutiny. They want to live to use their pronouns.

Also the behavior of the T Roosevelt will be a tell on what happened to the Ike. Even our illustrious military planners won’t want a repeat event. Unless they are really clueless ….

USS Theodore Roosevelt (CVN-71) arrived in Busan, South Korea on June 22th.

It will participate in tri-lateral Show of Force against DPRK, along with ROK & Japan.

Taking into account this, the Aircraft Carrier won't arrive in the Middle East between at least end of July.

Well, this is very good news and certainly so for the sailors on board the Ike.

yes. It is also possible that once back in home port, we may begin to hear tales of what really happened in Yemen. They can keep a lid on communications while deployed, bit harder on shore leave..... At some point the truth will come out
