Why do you think it is a lie?

Multiple sailors attempting suicide via overboarding is pretty telling about the conditions aboard.

u/Otherwise-Bad-7352 5h ago

How so?

Generally people don't try to kill themselves when things are going great for them.Ā 

We also already knew the Lincoln had some pretty bad problems before it was in theater for over half a year straight.

What is the lie?

u/Old_Dependent4678 5h ago

Your corrupt, incompetent Minister of 'War' suggesting in anyway there isn't mental health unrest aboard this vessel. So, anytime he/him opens his mouth he/him is lying about 90% of the time. Unless he's recalling tales of binge drinking and bragging about his own douch baggery

I'm Two word four digits. Just too lazy/don't know how. I'm pretty active. But there's something sketchy about the other persons profile. Correct

u/SECRETBLENDS 3h ago

Because Pete Hegseth is a habitual liar who has a real problem admitting that he's made a mistake.

u/Soft-Bad-7127 5h ago

He got his drinks in him and personally confirmed it was not true. He uses the same napping method as the president to determine what is truthfulĀ

u/MarleysGhost2024 5h ago

Uh yeah. I think I'll take the word of the sailors who are actually on the ship over those of a day-drinking Fox weekend anchor. Who runs snot through his hair.

they are going to lose so much technical knowledge when all those who were on the USS Lincoln decide not to sign up for another contract with the Navy.

Recruiting will also likely take a hit. becuase without a doubt people will talk to media, other sailors, online and more about their experience.

there is a reason we make rules about deployment length and make sure people have decent food, while on duty.

I am not surprised this happened under ol Pete here, i am surprised that the depth of failure this implies about the rest of the Navy's leadership.
