Which Fleet or Carriers in Red Sea

Which Fleet or Carriers in Red Sea?
I am an American living in Yemen and I have watched many US military jets flying over our house here. It is so amazing to see the different manuevers. Some planes fly so low that you can feel the aftershocks. I was wondering which USS carriers are stationed in the Red Sea or if there is any stationed off of the Western Coast of Yemen and if the manuevers are the ones that Bush ordered to threaten Iran or at least show off the military strength or are these the ones that are stationed off the coast of Somalia? I just am curious if I am watching the news taking place. I know there is a Naval Base in Aden but the planes seem to be coming from the direction of Saudi Arabia. Or is there any other country's military stationed in the Red Sea doing manuevers?
