A U.S. Navy commander says three ships are sailing toward Myanmar, ready to aid cyclone victims if they are given permission.

Vice Admiral Doug Crowder said Monday that the ships were currently in the Bay of Bengal.

Crowder told reporters in Jakarta, Indonesia, that three amphibious ships that are part of the 7th fleet were heading for the devastated country.
