I am not surprized about our Gov pulling you guys out of there after seeing just how bad off the nuclear plant status really is. The spread of radiation is already creating an environment very unhealthy for human life, and it will surely get worse the longer things are not brought under control. With persiverance I am confident that they will eventually find a way to get things calmed down, but what I do fear is the amount of contamination that will be experienced up to that moment is going to be a catastrophy of its own. And why would our Naval forces want to be left in the midst of such a inevitable situation when they well know that things are going to get worse? Remove all forces that are not, and can not directly effect the outcome of the nuclear contamination. Otherwise would be placing our forces in harms way when it could be avoided. I also have to wonder what is being done for the US ground forces left behind during this chrisis? The more people they move away from this potentially very large disaster the better. Not just Americans but anyone that they can get out of harms way would be a blessing. The only people who need to be there are the ones who are contributing directly to the containment of the problem.
