Hmmmm... US marine pilots on British carrier?
Is it usual for marine pilots to fly off US carriers, or are tbey more often based on amphibious assault carriers such as USS America?
If the latter, does that make the QE an assault ship, not a genuine aircraft carrier of say, Nimitz class?

Not a trick question, yes, I really am that dumb on such matters.

Who gives them their orders? Is some brit PC officer going to be their commander? This is a bad idea.
