San Diego Union Tribune: Navy struggles with shortage of aircraft carriers
Spun up as a training command in 2014 and armed with increasingly advanced software to simulate combat at sea, Carrier Strike Group 15 toils to teach warships how to fight and win wars in the Pacific.
But it can’t always overcome an ongoing global gap in American flattops.

That was the message from the group’s skipper, Rear Adm. Ross Myers, and his boss, Third Fleet commander Vice Adm. Nora Tyson, during a presentation in Point Loma before the San Diego Military Advisory Council on Thursday.
