Two aircraft carriers and support group?

And we can't know where subs are.

Sorta. Still not any major moves signaling a major air campaign.

Interesting that we have 4 KC135s in the air over Europe that all flew south to the med off the coast of Spain, then flew the length of the med to about Greece before turning back north and apparently heading back to the UK. Suggests to me that we had several groups of planes flying W to E across the Med that needed refueling on their way to somewhere. F-35s out of Moron or Rota maybe?

That and/or the growlers mentioned at the bottom of the last page is a safe bet

Actually this link claims it was 18 F-35s from Lakenheath going to Crete.

Nice. Moving stuff from Lakenheath to Souda is an actual development in build up. We had a lot of traffic there the last go around with Iran.

Actually I wonder if just the tankers stopped in Souda. Quite possible the fighters continued to Jordan on their own.
