U.S. Military Takes Stand, Hammers ISIS With Airstrikes [VIDEO] According to recent reports, the USS Harry Truman aircraft carrier has just moved to the Mediterranean Sea, after six months in the Persian Gulf. Bombers are taking off faster and more frequently from the Truman, determined to strike ISIS targets in war-ravaged Syria and Iraq. Planes are taking off or landing every few minutes these days, with only intermittent breaks. That is more pressure for those responsible for bomb supplies. These workers have started working night and day to keep up. The Truman has played an enormous role in the United States military campaign against ISIS. Besides a land base in Turkey, it is the main launching point for bombing runs agains the radical Islamic organization. U.S. allied forces have been gaining ground, with the support of the United States. Iraqi Security Forces are closer than ever to winning back the Iraqi stronghold of Falluja. From their initial position in the Persian Gulf and now from the Mediterranean, the Trumans crew has flow more than 1,800 sorties and dropped around 1,500 pieces of ordnance weighing 1.5 million pounds on ISIS targets. We can operate anywhere we want to in the world, Rear Adm. Bret Batchelder said in an interview with CNN. As it happens on this deployment our priority has been the support of Operation Inherent Resolve in Iraq and Syria. The missions are long, often around seven hours, and intensive. Each one can require three refueling trips with the tankers. It is also grueling for the sailors, who are responsible for making sure bombs are always available are working extra hours to keep up with the new pace. According to CNN, the USS Harry Truman will remain in the Mediterranean Sea for several more weeks.
