The State of the Navy | 'Only in America'

The State of the Navy – As U.S.-China relations remain tense, Norah O'Donnell goes aboard the USS Nimitz, a United States Navy aircraft carrier operating southeast of Taiwan and China in the Western Pacific. With rare access to the ship and its officers during a deployment, O'Donnell reports on the state of the Navy amid threats of a Chinese invasion of Taiwan – an important American ally. O'Donnell speaks with the Commander of the U.S. Pacific Fleet, Admiral Samuel Paparo, at sea and Chief of Naval Operations, Admiral Mike Gilday, at the Pentagon. The report includes a candid discussion of U.S. contingency planning for Taiwan and how the U.S. is attempting to maintain readiness while keeping up with China's rapid and remarkable naval and military build-up. This is a double-length segment.
