Aircraft carrier returns after nine months defending Red Sea shipping routes

The USS Dwight D. Eisenhower and its 4,000 sailors returned from a nine-month deployment in the Red Sea this week. While overseas, the carrier group spent much of its time defending shipping lanes from attacks from Iranian-backed Yemeni rebels and taking part in some of the most intense air combat since World War II.

Army ship?

[@Cuewill]

Houthis are still attacking Israel but they are claiming mission complete

Troops rotation, that's basic. Another carrier is in Red Sea now to defend It and continue to operate against the Houtis.

After this extended deployment, you'll see every pilot eligible to retire or finish their hitch, leave.
