The basics always start with readiness.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He continued, \u201cReadiness is men and women of the United States military militarily ready to go into combat if called upon.

Others shared texts with MeidasTouch claiming that the ship is unable to get any fresh rations, like milk, and that even some once-frozen meat arrives rotten. <\/p>\n<p>The ship\u2019s deployment began in November and was due to end in May, making its current service the longest of a U.S. carrier in the modern era.
