This afternoon USNS Kanawha (T-AO 196), departed from Augusta, carried out a remplishment at sea in the Otranto channel.
Yesterday we tracked an MH-60R south of Sicily which testified that the Carrier Strike Group of the USS Bush, which left Marseille on January 4, was repositioning itself in the central Mediterranean.
Today’s replenishment could be an indication of how the CSG is repositioning itself in the Adriatic, where it has operated almost continuously since its entry into the Mediterranean.
