Haven’t had time to check all the names yet but it seems that only one of the missile cruisers firing was from the Bush group ( Phillipine Sea). The other cruiser shooting had to be from the Vinson group. My last check on the Vinson had it moving into 5th fleet area but sometimes the doggone US Navy forgets to update my shop wall map. Slackers.

Vinson is still in WesPAc.
U.S. military officials with CENTCOM said early Tuesday that it had launched a combined 47 missiles from two warships, the USS Philippine Sea, a guided missile cruiser, and the USS Arleigh Burke, a destroyer. The first ship was in the Persian Gulf; the second in the Red Sea. The Philippine Sea is part of the USS George H.W. Bush Carrier Strike Group, which includes an aircraft carrier by the same that the U.S. military has been using for weeks to launch airstrikes in Iraq.
