Are you sure about that date?

One more thing just before we launched those aircraft two Phantoms assigned to Forrestal flew by America on the port side low and slow.

Lincoln Carrier Strike Group to Deploy with Information Warfare Commander on Staff
as I didn't know what that new Information Warfare Commander would do for an admiral, and I still don't know, actually the last paragraph sounds strange:
Shepard said the strength of his job is the ability to “help provide fused information so the commander understands what’s going on: you’ve got your intelligence picture, we call that battlespace awareness; his communications are enabling him to have a command and control of the forces around him and be able to communicate effectively, particularly with a high-stress situation when you’re under fire; and additionally that we can advise the commander on where he needs to operate based on the weather conditions, what’s going on there that we can help guide the ship in such a way that puts us in a position of tactical advantage.”

[to help a commander to] "communicate effectively, particularly with a high-stress situation when you’re under fire"
I mean it's going to be the commander's call (not that Information Warfare Commander's call)
