​CNN just reported that the military just ordered the USS Dubuque out of the Seal Beach Naval Weapons Station in anticipation of tsunami wave currently heading to Orange County as a result of the devastating 8.9 earthquake that hit Japan yesterday.

It's an amphibious transfer dock that just took part in military exercises at Camp Pendleton The precautionary measure was done due to Seal Beach's near-sea-level elevation. Waves are expected to hit Orange County around 7:15 this morning. Be safe. . . .

It is a mothers fear to know that there child is in are could be in some kind of danger. If anyone hears of any newsa of the Dahl Navy ship please send me an email at nelwyn.a.pickett@nasa.gov. May God Bless all whom was involved.
