Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Operation Odyssey Dawn in Libya 2011. U.S. and Coalition Maritime Forces Laydown. US Vice Admiral Bill Gortney, Director of The Joint Staff: You can see here a quick view of the maritime laydown, with most ships operating just to the north of Libya. These are, of course, notional positions as the ships are moving about, but it gives you a sense of the size and scope of the naval effort being expended by the -- by the coalition. Twenty-six of these ships are being contributed by partner nations today, up from 22 on Sunday, and the United States has a total of 12. I’d note that the presence of two aircraft carriers, France’s Charles De Gaulle and Italy’s Garibaldi, both of which have combat aircraft that embark.
