Will take a while for USAF to setup Atlantic Air bridge but commercial guys can do in a pinch right away.
Most cargo US fly's to Poland in support of Ukraine are on commercial cargo B-747 flights.
USAF C-17/C-5M aircraft do best on oversize rolling cargo...

Here comes Israeli B-744 into Dover AFB tonight. Dover is a big cargo hub for the Mil of many countries.
CAL Cargo Airways tail XL-ICA B744 callsign YDN-100.

YDN100 Flight Tracking and History 09-Oct-2023 (TLV / LLBG-KDOV) - FlightAware
Currently setting up to land at Nevatim Air Base after a 10 and a half hour flight from Dover.

Saw this guy leaving Israel earlier today:

The first Mexican Air Force humanitarian flight took off from Israel on Tuesday with 135 Mexican nationals aboard — including members of a rhythmic gymnastics team — the country’s Foreign Minister Alicia Bárcena posted to X. A second is expected. (WashPost)

From the Wall Street Journal at noon ET:

The U.S. may deploy a second aircraft carrier near Israel, U.S. defense officials said, an escalation of the U.S. military effort to deter regional powers from joining the war between Hamas and Israel.
The USS Dwight D. Eisenhower and its accompanying ships were scheduled months ago to sail this week for the Middle East. They are expected to reach the Middle East in roughly two weeks, defense officials said.

Sounds like they may have made their minds up.

It was always going to deploy, the question is whether it will supplement or replace the Ford strike group.

C-17 RCH326 (might’ve been 327) was showing up on Flightradar over Jordan and was its most tracked aircraft before turning its transponder off. Was at 13,000ft, seems to have came from Turkey. Can only assume it’s heading for Israel.

The first shipment of U.S. supplies came in to Ben Gurion last night. Television shows it was on an Israeli aircraft (saw the 4X registration) but I could not identify the type based on the limited view of the unloading, which was through the side hatch.
