Nice Map, worth your time.

America’s largest warships are being joined by 100 aircraft and 11,000 troops to practice defending the crucial Pacific island of Guam as China declares it is “militarily and morally ready for war”.

The aircraft carrier USS Ronald Regan and assault ship USS America will join amphibious warfare vessels USS New Orleans and USS Germantown in war-games centred on Guam’s major naval and air force facilities.

Dubbed “Exercise Valiant Shield”, the co-ordinated land, sea and air operations around the central Pacific island will last 10 days and extend through the Marianas Island chain, the US Pacific Fleet said in a statement.
