Status of East Coast Naval Deployment
Although all 5 Nuclear Carriers are not all docked at this time, I believe 3 are, plus many ships are including Destroyers and Amphibious Assault ships. I have no idea if that has or has not happened since WW2. I know however, that is indicative of WW3.
I could use help identifying what portion of our naval presence including Marine is docked or near the coast in US waters. Please photo or text reply with any missing ship information.
This is what I have so far and it’s quite a lot. I’m cross-referencing assault, carrier, intel, and surface warfare ship list from the FAS database to the Official Military Database.
