Reports that sailors aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln attempted to jump overboard have intensified concerns over the mental health and living conditions of the carrier’s roughly 5,000 sailors and Marines, as its deployment has stretched into a ninth month amid the US’s ongoing violations targeting Iran.

On Tuesday, The Navy Times and Stars and Stripes reported multiple thwarted incidents involving sailors attempting to jump from the carrier. The crew has spent 250 consecutive days without making land, according to the reports, described as a record for a US aircraft carrier in modern times.

About 200 relatives of Lincoln personnel attended a town hall meeting with Navy officials in San Diego last Thursday, where concerns over the prolonged deployment and sailors’ wellbeing were raised directly with acting Navy Secretary Hung Cao and other officials.

One spouse said her husband had texted her that day saying “he hopes he doesn’t wake up tomorrow.”

Another woman told Cao that the Navy had “broken trust between us and the leadership,” Stars and Stripes reported.

The Navy Times quoted Annabelle Loma as saying her husband had attempted to jump overboard after his deployment was repeatedly extended.

“He’s scared. He thinks he’ll get a dishonorable discharge, and just because he was burnt out his 13-year career is ruined, just like that,” she said.

The publication also quoted another sailor’s wife, who said her husband had prevented a fellow crewmember from jumping by grabbing the person and bringing them back onto the deck.
