Llega nuevamente al Mediterráneo

Y se integra en la 6ª Flota, con cuartel general en Gaeta (Nápoles-Italia) el "Harry S. Truman Strike Group" de la US Navy.

El HSTSG se compone, y sirve como modelo general de poder naval, de los siguientes navíos y contingentes:

" The HSTCSG consists of the Nimitz-class aircraft carrier USS Harry S. Truman (CVN 75); Ticonderoga-class guided-missile cruiser USS Normandy (CG 60); Arleigh Burke-class guided-missile destroyers USS Farragut (DDG 99), USS Forrest Sherman (DDG 98), USS Bulkeley (DDG 84) and USS Arleigh Burke (DDG 51), along with the embarked staffs of Carrier Strike Group (CSG) 8, Carrier Air Wing (CVW) 1 and Destroyer Squadron (DESRON) 28.

The Arleigh Burke-class guided-missile destroyers USS Jason Dunham (DDG 109) and USS The Sullivans (DDG 68) are slated to deploy and rejoin the strike group at a later date.
Más, probablemente pero nunca reseñado, algún submarino nuclear de ataque.
