Sailors Attempt to Jump Overboard from USS Abraham Lincoln Amid Record-Breaking Deployment
Multiple sailors aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln have attempted to go overboard amid a mental health crisis, with at least one rescued, per Navy Times, Stars and Stripes, and CNN. The carrier, carrying 5,000+ crew, has been at sea nearly seven months without a port stop — a US carrier record. Its mission was extended past May due to the US-Israel war with Iran.
