USS Abraham Lincoln Nears 321-Day Homecoming as Senate Seeks Welfare Reviews Escrito 8 de outubro de 2026 às 01:31 UTC
Transcrição 0:09 On August 21st, we reported Lincoln heading home. 0:12 Its scheduled return now follows 321 deployment days. 0:16 Eight suicide attempts across the strike group have put crew welfare at the center 0:19 of demands for independent review. 0:21 What is established about those extensions, and what remains unanswered about the 0:25 crew's supplies, rest, and care? 0:27 The USS Abraham Lincoln is due at Naval Air Station North Island in San Diego on 0:32 October 8th. 0:33 At the October 7th reporting cutoff, it had not arrived alongside. 0:37 Welcoming sailors aboard the ship did not establish a completed homecoming. 0:41 Our August 21 account described roughly 273 deployment days and a projected 4-5 week 0:47 voyage after an expected relief by USS George Washington. 0:51 The actual journey, including stops in Thailand and Guam, has overtaken that 0:54 projection. 0:55 On August 19th, we reported 268 days at sea, approximately 5,000 sailors and 1:01 Marines, and more than 200 consecutive days without a port call. 1:05 Those were the accounts then, not today's final duration or a confirmed arrival. 1:10 The exact August 19 on-station relief date and an August 22 departure from the 1:15 Central Command Area are not established. 1:17 Neither should become a confirmed transit milestone simply because it appeared in an 1:21 earlier account. 1:22 Lincoln reached Lame Chabang in Thailand on September 2 and departed September 6th. 1:28 That was its first full or regular port visit of the deployment. 1:31 A September 19 to 20 stop at April Harbor in Guam provided logistics support and 1:36 on-base liberty. 1:37 The Guam visit around deployment day 302 was not a regular full Liberty port call. 1:42 Escorts also visited Thailand, USS Frank E. 1:45 Peterson Jr. 1:46 went to Siracha, and USS Robert Smalls to Map Taw Foot. 1:50 Peterson returned to Hawaii on September 28th. 1:52 Lincoln departed San Diego on November 21st, 2025. 1:57 The 321-day deployment includes port visits. 2:00 The gap from its December 11th Guam stop to Thailand was roughly 264 elapsed 2:06 days or 265 with inclusive counting, not another deployment. 2:10 The 286-day description at Thailand tracks the deployment calendar span. 2:15 Another account used 208 consecutive days at sea and 200 days in a combat zone. 2:20 Its boundaries are not established as equivalent to the longer December to September 2:23 port call gap. 2:24 Mission length and the intervals between shore opportunities measure different 2:28 burdens on sailors and families. 2:30 Neither a deployment total nor a combat zone count by itself tells us whether rest 2:35 and support were adequate. 2:36 Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth acknowledged signing two extensions when he boarded 2:40 Lincoln on October 7th. 2:42 He also acknowledged that the mission and resupply were not easy. 2:45 Those decisions are now among the subjects proposed for independent scrutiny. 2:49 Hegseth presented the Presidential Unit Citation, the military's highest unit-level 2:53 award for valor in battle. 2:55 It recognizes the Abraham Lincoln Carrier Strike Group, including the Carrier, 2:59 Carrier Air Wing 9, and accompanying ships, not every action by the carrier alone. 3:03 The citation credits the group with 3,693 combat sorties, delivery of 3:09 1.37 million pounds of ordnance, Launch of 450 Tomahawk land attack cruise missiles, 3:14 and sinking 64 Iranian warships. 3:17 These are official claims, not independently audited operational results. 3:21 The award does not provide an independently established inventory of Iranian losses 3:25 or a civilian casualty assessment. 3:27 Its figures describe the credited scale of the mission, not a complete accounting of 3:31 its consequences. 3:32 The award also credits defenses with shooting down 77 one-way attack drones, 3:36 destroying 21 anti-ship cruise missiles, and defending against four fast attack 3:40 craft or explosive-carrying ships described as DAOs. 3:43 Four is not an additional independently verified count of ships sunk. 3:46 40 straight combat days began February 28th, followed by a months-long blockade. 3:52 February 28th is established as the start of US combat alongside Israel. 3:56 The reported February 28th to August 22 award interval is not a 40-day calendar 4:01 span. 4:02 The August 22th citation endpoint has not been independently corroborated. 4:06 It must not become either a verified operational end date. 4:09 or proof that all the months between February and August were counted as 40 combat 4:14 days. 4:14 Hegseth characterized the mission as preventing Iran's leaders from ever getting a 4:18 nuclear weapon. 4:19 That does not establish that Iran's future nuclear capability has been permanently 4:23 eliminated. 4:24 He called families' long-wait service to a righteous and historic mission. 4:27 Hegseth attacked efforts to portray the deployment as dysfunction, low morale, or 4:32 failure. 4:32 Earlier, he had called welfare reporting completely misrepresented, while acting 4:36 Navy Secretary Hung Tsao challenged some reporting's honesty. 4:40 The subsequent disclosure requires a separate accounting of personnel welfare. 4:44 Hegseth also claimed no casualties during combat operations and no aircraft mishaps. 4:49 That combat claim does not describe the crew's entire health experience. 4:53 Suicide attempts do not themselves establish combat deaths, and an absence of combat 4:57 casualties does not erase them. 4:59 Eight attempts were disclosed across the strike group, not just aboard Lincoln. 5:03 Hung Tsao, the correct name, not Hung Kao, wrote to Senator Kirsten Gillibrand on 5:08 September 22nd. 5:10 Her office published the letter and excerpts September 24. 5:13 No service members died by suicide. 5:16 The count includes the crew, air wing, strike group, and destroyer squadron staffs 5:20 escorting destroyers and embarked aviation squadrons. 5:23 It does not identify every ship or establish that all attempts happened aboard 5:27 Lincoln, nor does it rule out repeat events involving one person. 5:31 In March, shipmates intervened in one attempt. 5:34 The sailor received immediate medical care and returned to homeport. 5:38 In early August, an air wing sailor was recovered by helicopter, treated by 5:42 Lincoln's medical department, and transferred off the ship for follow-up care. 5:46 The other six attempts were not detailed. 5:49 Their dates, locations, and subsequent clinical outcomes remain publicly unclear. 5:54 The disclosure establishes neither a medical cause for each attempt nor that 5:58 deployment length alone caused it. 6:00 The listed support included five chaplains, an embedded integrated prevention 6:04 counselor, a psychologist, a clinical social worker, three behavioral health 6:08 technicians. 6:09 And an expeditionary facility dog that establishes the resources listed, not whether 6:14 every sailor could get care when needed. 6:16 The staffing figures do not establish whether capacity was sufficient for the 6:19 population. 6:20 Support was available at the necessary time, or every request was met. 6:24 Whether anyone sought help and failed to receive it remains a central unanswered 6:28 question. 6:29 Gillibrand's October 7th response was that the sailors deserve better than a photo 6:33 op. 6:34 Their return would end the immediate separation from home. 6:37 It would not establish that recovery, treatment, or accountability is complete. 6:41 Senator Ruben Gallego requested two independent reviews on October 7th. 6:45 One asks Defense Department Inspector General Platt B. 6:48 Mooring III to investigate planning. 6:50 The two extensions reported food and basic supply shortages, resupply arrangements, 6:55 sustained fatigue, and leadership responses. 6:57 Gallego also sought scrutiny of mental health access, including whether a sailor 7:01 asked for care and did not receive it. 7:03 He asked whether policies were adequate and whether non-compliance or systemic 7:07 deficiencies warranted accountability. 7:09 These are requested investigations, not Inspector General findings. 7:13 The request was copied to Naval Inspector General, Vice Admiral M. 7:16 Wayne Bays and Sao. 7:18 In a separate letter to Acting Comptroller General Oris W. 7:21 Brown, Galago asked the Government Accountability Office to assess safe, effective 7:26 sustainment of extended deployments. 7:28 The proposed standards cover deployment duration, crew rest, port call frequency, 7:33 logistics reserves, mental health capacity, maintenance, and post-deployment 7:37 recovery. 7:38 The broader review would examine logistics, maintenance, welfare, readiness, and 7:42 retention, not merely how much firepower a strike group can deliver. 7:45 A separate dispute over Senator Chris Murphy's denied military access concerns, Al 7:50 Udad and Qatar, not a Lincoln oversight visit. 7:53 The Pentagon said support was denied in advance under Heg Seth's Regional Travel 7:56 Directive, and that the guidance was applied evenly. 7:59 The answer is that two extensions are acknowledged and eight attempts are officially 8:03 disclosed. 8:04 Whether supplies, rest, and care met the crew's needs remains unresolved. 8:08 Neither review request establishes that an investigation has opened or an agency has 8:12 accepted it. 8:13 No agency response or firm report date is confirmed. 8:16 A November 20 response deadline is not sufficiently corroborated and cannot be 8:20 presented as a promised delivery date. 8:23 Lincoln's next scheduled event remains the October 8th peer arrival at North Island.
