USS Gettysburg returns to Naval Station Norfolk after 8-month deployment
NORFOLK, Va. (WAVY) – After an 8-month deployment, USS Gettysburg, part of the Harry S. Truman Carrier Strike Group, has returned to its homeport at Naval Station Norfolk. Bittersweet homecoming for USS Harry S. Truman The Ticonderoga class cruiser departed in September 2024, traveling to Europe and the Middle East to conduct combat operations in the Red Sea, as well as exercises with NATO allies. 'It was amazing in a lot of ways. We learned a lot. We have a lot to share with the fleet based off our experience in the Red Sea in particular, but the feeling to be home as well, it's amazing,' said Captain John Lucas, Commanding Officer of USS Gettysburg. Retired naval aviator shares insight on 'friendly fire' incident in the Red Sea The ship was in headlines back in December following an instance of friendly fire, shooting down a U.S. Navy F/A-18 Super Hornet over the Red Sea. 'It's under investigation, those results have not been revealed yet to the public. I can tell you again, we took on a lot of lessons from that event,' said Captain Lucas. After the deployment was extended twice, families of the roughly 330 returning sailors gathered along the pier at Naval Station Norfolk to welcome their loved ones home. 'It's a very long time. We're kind of used to it. We have another child in the military, so we've been down this road. But this is her first time having been gone so this long, so it was tough. We're going to take her home and whatever she wants to do is what she wants to do. It's her break, with us along for the ride,' said Carrie Ayd, mother of returning sailor. Captain Lucas said while the Navy is retiring certain cruisers, he's not certain what the future holds for USS Gettysburg, but said he and his crew will be ready when called upon. 'I think we're all ready for a nice long winter nap in the summer. All I can tell you is my job and this crew's job is going to be to be ready to go again when called upon, whenever that might be. I'm excited to maintain and be a part of the team for as long as they'll have me,' he said. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

Bear Breaks Into Family's Backyard, Nobody Prepared for What It Does Next
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. A Los Angeles homeowner was stunned when a black bear entered their backyard, but it is what the animal did next that has shocked internet users. In a viral TikTok video shared on Saturday under the username @laurenaurora, the bear is filmed walking around the yard as if he owns the place, before proceeding to jump inside the family's pool for a refreshing splash. The poster and her mom can be heard in the background, discussing about calling the police, while the unaware bear freshens up in the 90-degree Fahrenheit heat. "Excuse my mom and I's commentary, but it's not every day that you see a bear in your backyard. This bear was most likely displaced from the Eaton fires, but enjoy this cute clip of it cooling off in my pool," the caption says. The California Department of Fish and Wildlife says that black bears are the only wild bears in the state, but they do come in different colors, from solid shades of black to lighter ones of brown and tan. With over 35,000 specimens, California has the second-highest black bear population in the whole country, following Alaska, which has 100,000. Although rare, bear attacks can and do happen, which is why you should exercise caution around them. WebMD says that, if a bear has noticed you and looks threatening, there are things you can do to de-escalate the situation. The first thing to do is stay calm. Do not run away, as this can make the bear think you are prey. If you're in a group, gather everyone together and pick up any small children. You can try talking to the bear calmly so it knows you are human and back away slowly, trying to avoid any unnecessary interaction. However, if the bear starts to approach, WebMD says you should make yourself as big as possible by stretching your arms over your head and making loud noises. If it charges at you, it is time to use bear spray, which you should take with you in areas densely populated by bears.

One user, A. commented: "If this happened in MY backyard, I would cancel my entire day and just watch that beautiful creature and let him do whatever he wants and pray that he's ok." Casey posted: "Immediately disappointed we don't have more bear in pool footage." Angiehall6082 added: "He's so hot and miserable. Please just let him cool off. He will go away after he has a little swim." Newsweek reached out to @laurenaurora for comment via TikTok comments. We could not verify the details of the case.
