Well AP makes mistakes... CNN was covering help from all over the world
and they mentioned the rescue teams from mexico, but I read earlier that two Navy ships are either on the way (as of tomorrow morning) or the second later. The one leaving on the morrow is a medical ship.

Good news... so much news even AP is overwhelmed

Here is the link

Además se prevé que el buque "Huasteco" zarpe de Veracruz hacia el país caribeño el viernes, mientras que el buque "Papaloapan" saldría, con más ayuda, en el transcurso del fin de semana.

And this is the class, an anfib for the huasteco, it makes sense, multiuse

1. Oh and here is irony the Papaloapan is formerly the USS Newport
and it was part of the Mexican Operation to assist the Gulf Coast during Katrina.

Those are always funny factoids to me.
