My take is that the shift is moving away from Iraq-era ground-based forces and shifting more towards sea and airpower in the Pacific to oppose China's increasing might.
Not saying you're wrong, but I'd probably be the first person here to know about it, and I haven't seen anything indicating it.
Edit: Just remembered RIMPAC is this year, so damn near every ship we have will be here in a few months. No point in bringing everything in right now.
