Luxury cruise ship catches fire off the coast of California
U.S. aircraft carrier carries emergency supplies
PACIFIC OCEAN (Nov. 9, 2010) An SH-60F Sea Hawk from the Black Knights of Helicopter Anti-Submarine Squadron (HS) 4, embarked aboard the aircraft carrier USS Ronald Reagan (CVN 76), delivers pallets of supplies to the Carnival cruise ship C/V Splendor. Ronald Reagan was diverted from its current training maneuvers at the direction of Commander U.S. Third Fleet, and at the request of the U.S. Coast Guard, to a position south near the Carnival cruise ship C/V Splendor to facilitate the delivery of 4,500 pounds of supplies to the cruise ship. Early Monday, CV Splendor reported it was dead in the water 150 nautical miles southwest of San Diego. (Photo by U.S. Navy/AFLO) [0006]
