Doesn't seem to be in any mainstream news. Not that I trust them, but they wouldn't hesitate to report something like this...

I think this is a hoax, there are a number of sites reporting the Enterprise has traveled through Hormuz with no issues. If genuine I assume the MSM would be rabid by now with "bomb Iran" propaganda.

Total BS. The MSM would be all over it.

Oh yeah.... it was an arrack alright! Don't you doubt it for one minute.

A sailor from Gulfport was found dead in his berthing compartment aboard the aircraft carrier U.S.S. Enterprise in the Middle East on Friday morning, according to a ship spokeswoman.
Master Chief Petty Officer Richard J. Kessler, 47, was found dead in his compartment at 7 a.m. local time, according to Lt. Com. Sarah Self-Kyler.
The cause of death is under investigation, said Navy Lt. Greg Raelson.
"The Navy is deeply saddened by the loss of one of our shipmates," Raelson said. "Our deepest thoughts and condolences go out to his family during this difficult time."
Kessler was the leading chief petty officer for the supply department and oversaw about 500 sailors, according to Self-Kyler.
He was in charge of making sure the Enterprise was fully stocked with food and supplies, said Self-Kyler.
"He was well known on the ship and very well liked by the sailors who reported to him and everyone else," she said.
Despite the death, morale on the ship is strong, said Self-Kyler.
"We are carrying on the way he would have wanted us to," she said.
Kessler joined the Navy in 1984 and has been on the Enterprise since April 2011.
The Enterprise is supporting Operation Enduring Freedom. About 4,800 sailors and Marines are aboard the Enterprise.
Kessler received several awards during his time in the service:
Defense Meritorious Service Medal
Joint Service Commendation Medal
Navy Commendation Medal (2)
Joint Service Achievement Medal
Navy Achieve Medal (4)
Army Achievement Medal
Meritorious Unit Commendation
Coast Guard Meritorious Unit Commendation
