USS George Washington Deployed Indefinitely Near Hormuz, Crew Caught Off Guard
⚓ HORMUZ — The crew didn't know. That's the point. 📌 LOOK CLOSER: No end-date on a carrier deployment means Washington is signaling permanence, not presence.

For Tehran, a carrier with no rotation timeline removes the pressure-release valve Iran counts on. Three carriers, one indefinite.
