Jan Hansen says "Usually the USS John C Stennis travels though our waters unspecified and alone, except for naval escorts.

"She went by just before 5pm Monday with her team. When I looked out a bit later, she had civilian company."

From Wikipedia:

USS John C. Stennis is the seventh Nimitz-class nuclear-powered supercarrier in the United States Navy, named for Senator John C. Stennis of Mississippi. She was commissioned on 9 December 1995. Her home port is Bremerton, Washington.
