After some yrs. of being overhauled, the Carl Vinson was on its way to San Diego for homeporting and just ordered to head to Haiti with the crews own supplies and disburse.
The Navy knows how to shift gears quick.
My cousins son is a crew member on board the Vinson.

Here’s an onboard newsletter from the ship. Down the page their are links to the ship’s Facebook and Twitter accounts! Pretty cool to have up-to-the minute accounts and photos.
My boy is a heavy equipment operator.
I know where he's going.
