The ship had spent over 200 consecutive days at sea, including combat and blockade operations in the Middle East, as confirmed by multiple outlets. This deployment set a modern record for continuous sea duty, according to US Senator Richard Blumenthal."},{"type":"paragraph","text":"The Lincoln departed San Diego in November 2025 and was scheduled to return to Southern California later in 2026. Reports from crew members and relatives, as well as a letter from Blumenthal to Defence Secretary Pete Hegseth and the acting Navy secretary, described deteriorating conditions aboard the ship. These included supply shortages, water contamination, plumbing issues, and mental health concerns among the 5,000-strong crew."},{"type":"paragraph","text":"At least one possible suicide attempt was reported, as noted by CNN. Blumenthal’s letter, sent in August 2026, demanded answers about living conditions and the impact of extended deployments.

US President Donald Trump dismissed concerns about the deployment’s length, calling it “not nearly long enough.”"},{"type":"paragraph","text":"The Pentagon announced in August 2026 that the USS George Washington, based in Japan, would be dispatched to replace the Lincoln in the Middle East. The George Washington took up station alongside the USS George H.W. Bush, maintaining a two-carrier presence in the region. Critics argued that the redeployment left a gap in US naval capacity in East Asia, reducing deterrence against China and North Korea."},{"type":"paragraph","text":"The Lincoln’s port call in Pattaya, a city known for its nightlife and history as a rest-and-recreation destination for US servicemembers during the Vietnam War, drew attention from Thai authorities. Police apprehended at least 25 individuals suspected of soliciting prostitution ahead of the carrier’s arrival. Pattaya City Mayor Poramet Ngampichet said the visit would benefit the local economy and expressed hope for future military engagements."},{"type":"heading","text":"What the coverage left out"},{"type":"paragraph","text":"None of the right-rated digests mentioned the crew welfare concerns raised by Senator Blumenthal or the Pentagon’s response.
