6th fleet. there seems to be a lot of confusion as to whether the george washington is going in there as a result of provocation from north korea. is it? let me try and khraoeurt up thiclear it upthis way, jon. the george washington is scheduled to get underway to do an exercise with japan on the 3rd of december. we have this thing done by the north, getting her underway early and sending her to the western sea does two things. it reassures the commitment that we heard the president offer to president lee and it s a goodie personality option to check the north s intentions. if you look at how they are deployed, whatever they go they tend to have a calming presence about them. jon: calming presence. you don t think it in any way
