I saw a VH-60N over Rehoboth this afternoon, a now normal sight before a POTUS visit. That will likely be the acft that waits at DOV for emergencies.

Meanwhile, looks like Monday's KY trip is still a go, from the press briefing this afternoon...
" As you may have seen, on Monday, the President and the First Lady will travel to Eastern Kentucky with Governor Andy Beshear and his wife Britainy to visit communities devastated by flooding in recent days. They will also survey recovery efforts to -- at one of the region's FEMA Disaster Recovery Centers. "

Good article on the E-2D.. Didn't know it didn't have A/R refueling capability till now but that is changing too.
That sure is an impressive whistle clean shop they have down there in Florida in that pic.
