Families of sailors aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln pressed Navy leaders over crew mental health at a town hall meeting this week, as the aircraft carrier’s deployment stretches well past its original timeline. The carrier left San Diego in November and has now been at sea for more than eight months.

What began as a Pacific deployment turned into a Middle East posting after the ship was redirected, and a return date that was expected in May has now passed twice without the Lincoln coming home. The Navy has not announced when the ship will return to port.

Sailors aboard the Lincoln have logged 250 consecutive days at sea, according to Military Times, and supported 40 days of continuous combat operations in the U.S. 5th Fleet area of responsibility. The carrier has flown missions tied to the war with Iran, including Operation Epic Fury and the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz.

The extended stretch at sea has taken a visible toll. Families told Navy officials that sailors are dealing with moldy living conditions and food shortages, and that the mental strain has become severe enough that multiple crew members have attempted to go overboard.

Task and Purpose reported that in at least one case, a sailor on watch spotted a shipmate preparing to jump and pulled the person back onto the deck before anyone was hurt. Forbes has also reported on weakening morale tied to the deployment’s repeated extensions.

Navy officials at the town hall did not commit to a firm return date for the carrier. The Lincoln remains on station in the Middle East, and its crew’s families say they are still waiting for clarity on when the ship, and their sailors, will finally come home.

The deployment has already stretched into one of the longest for a U.S. carrier in recent years. Members of Congress who oversee military personnel issues have said they are tracking the situation, though none has announced a formal inquiry into conditions aboard the ship.
