After approximately twenty days in the Mediterranean and a brief stopover in Marseille, the U.S. aircraft carrier USS Harry S. Truman, along with its Carrier Strike Group (CSG), departed the Mediterranean yesterday via the Suez Canal.

The Truman’s CSG includes, in addition to the aircraft carrier itself: Carrier Air Wing (CVW) 1 with nine embarked aviation squadrons; Destroyer Squadron (DESRON) 28; the Ticonderoga-class guided-missile cruiser USS Gettysburg (CG 64); and two Arleigh Burke-class guided-missile destroyers, USS Stout (DDG 55) and USS Jason Dunham (DDG 109).

Currently, there are no U.S. naval units in the Mediterranean capable of deploying fixed-wing aircraft.
