Remember: 5th Fleet Headquarters is within the Gulf. Even if it hadn't been severely damaged, they wouldn't be able to resupply Navy vessels, but that is FAR from the only logistical hub in the region that was hit with drone/missile strikes.
They CAN'T fucking supply these ships & they CAN'T let sailors get rest & respite anywhere. The options in this region of the world are extremely limited for them.
And Trump & Hegseth caused this completely predictable crisis.
