Multiple USS Abraham Lincoln sailors have tried to go overboard amid extended deployment, families say

Not even deployed for 9 months yet. What utter babies. Come on fellas and ladies, you signed up for this! People did over 19 months in Iraq.

Oh yeah, and your commander in chief? The guy that’s making you do this? Yeah. He thinks you’re all suckers and losers. So there’s that too.

For some added context based on some cursory reading, it appears that they've not returned to port since December, and are running low on supplies to include things like soap, toothpaste, deodorant, and food. A bunch of equipment isn't working as well, including toilets. Limited/no hot water for showers, laundry is non-functional for long periods, and food is reportedly half a cup of rice and a few tortillas in some cases. Keep in mind, those deployed on an aircraft carrier are working something like 12 hours on, 12 hours off indefinitely.

Pretty fucked up, all told.

Us being out there keeps wars out of our country

Sigh
