American Aircraft Carrier with 'Exhausted Crew' En Route to Thai Port
The USS Abraham Lincoln, a U.S. aircraft carrier with a crew at sea for over 257 days, is heading to a Thai port for a stopover, confirmed by Thai officials to Reuters. The crew, which left in November 2025 for a planned 4-5 month Pacific mission, was redirected to the Middle East after war with Iran began in late February. Reports of poor conditions, exhaustion, and food shortages surfaced, though U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth called them 'completely inaccurate.' The ship is expected in Laem Chabang in early September 2026.
