Now what all of this makes me wonder, is what is going on across Hampton Roads on the Virginia Peninsula. Over there, you've got Newport News Shipbuilding, Langley AFB, Fort Eustis, Fort Monroe, and the Yorktown Naval Weapons Station. At first glance that strikes me as a better place to set up a cantonment if the south side of Hampton Roads took a 1 Mt. nuke.
This sounds a lot more likely/workable to me. "This fleet is heading to Norfolk" might really mean, "well, close to that, anyway."
