CONTEXT
Due to growing tensions in Oceania, President Gore ordered that the Navy deploy a Battleship Battlegroup to the area in order to ease tensions. The battlegroup prepared for deployment into the open Pacific from Hawaii as soon as possible. United States Marines were stationed aboard the USS Wisconsin along with its normal compliment, as well as NCIS agents afloat. It was estimated that the fleet would be ready to deploy within 48 hours. The Secretary of The Navy communicated with the Secretary of Defense, securely, and prepared to contact the Australian Ministry of Defense in order to brief them on the situation.
