I was wondereing whenver CBG's are deployed the SSn escort is not metnioned now afaik CBG groups were deployed with ssn escorts is this a matter of announciong their presence or are SSN's not routinely deployed with Carrier groups any more due to a percieved "lack of threat." I mention this now because on the Valiant Shield 06 site they metion the CBG's but the submarines are listed seperately, now this maybe because of the forward deployed subs at Guam eg Corpus Christ which is taking part, however this is not the only occasion they have not been listed so...

AFAIK they are still included the below is the listing for the next CSG to deploy later this summer:

"The Eisenhower Strike Group is comprised of Dwight D. Eisenhower and embarked CVW-7, and DESRON 28, including Anzio, Ramage, Mason, USS Newport News (SSN 750) and USNS Arctic (T-AOE 8)."
