The U.S. Navy has positioned a sizeable fleet off both the west and east coasts of Japan to aid in the relief efforts...the service had 14 ships and more than 10,000 personnel in Japan or off the Japanese coast. Military officials expect a total of 15 U.S. ships in the region.

“...we will soon have almost 70 helicopters in the region or in the area that was affected,” he said. “We’re moving Japanese first responders, Japanese troops by ship to the affected areas.”
