Why did you change the title from “delayed” to cancelled?

Because my boy is on the ship. They actually deployed 2 weeks ago then returned Monday. That alone was very weird. We spoke yesterday AM, and at that time he expected to be restarting the deployment on Friday. They already have the air wing on the ship, so you don’t “delay” with the planes on board. Now they will have to go back out to sea just so they can fly the planes back off the boat ... and no, they will not just let the planes sit there. When the ship is in port, the planes are on land. This is absolutely non-trivial, but like most things, it is being ignored in the media.
