USS Kearsarge (LHD 3) Deployed To Libya
http://www.debka.com/article/20716/

I grouped the Kearsarge in with the rest of these articles because it seems a little weird to put an entire MEU in a place where it will not be deployed. With that said, its helicopters might be deploying a Force Recon element with tanker support from the Enterprise CVG (ETA?) or from Malta. Why a non-uniform American would be in Libya right now is beyond me, though...
