How do we know the big ships actually entered the gulf? It could be just a ruse.
I'm not saying you're wrong, but a former coworker served on an LSD during the tanker wars and he said the battleships can barely clear the bottom in the gulf. I assumed the carriers would require too much of a draft to manuver in the gulf.
