Acting Navy Secretary Hung Cao said that eight sailors assigned to the USS Abraham Lincoln carrier strike group attempted suicide during its lengthy deployment in the Middle East.

The aircraft carrier's current deployment began on Nov. 21, 2025. Cao revealed the number of suicide attempts in a letter to Sen.
