8. Actually the USN belongs there
Best way to get transportation and supplies in is by sea. The big carrier has LOTS of sailors on board to work relief efforts, not to mention the largest medical facilities short of a hospital ship.

The helo carrier actually has more helos than deck space. Using the big carrier gives them much more room to work.

They can also produce electricity and fresh water in abundance. Something the area will desperately need.

Carriers are like rock stars, they always go with an entourage. Just in case there are some crazies out there.

Note that I did not see battleships mentioned, just carriers and their support groups
