Aircraft from US Navy crashes in South China Sea; USS Nimitz heads back to Washington.
Two U.S. Navy aircraft from the USS Nimitz experienced separate crashes into the South China Sea. All five crew members are safe and in stable condition after being rescued. Investigations are ongoing to determine the causes of the crashes. Now, the USS Nimitz is returning to Washington state. President Donald Trump mentioned a possible cause of "bad fuel" during a press conference. The aircraft carrier will eventually move to Norfolk, Virginia for decommissioning after completing its current deployment. This incident has drawn attention as another aircraft carrier, the USS Harry S Truman, faced mishaps while deployed recently.
