据独家分享给CNN的一封信件显示,两名颇具影响力的民主党参议员要求五角大楼调查参与对伊朗对峙行动的海军舰艇上的生活质量问题。
在周一寄给国防部长皮特·赫格斯瑟和代理海军部长曹洪的信中,议员们要求对亚伯拉罕·林肯号、杰拉尔德·R·福特号航空母舰以及本福德号驱逐舰的近期部署展开“立即独立战略审查”。本月早些时候,本福德号因工程故障在南海失去动力长达四天。
两艘航母都经历了超长时间部署,其中林肯号船员的状况在本月早些时候受到审查,此前有报道称舰上条件恶劣。
提出调查要求的是参议院拨款委员会的民主党最高成员:该委员会副主席、来自华盛顿州的帕蒂·默里,以及该委员会国防小组的民主党最高代表、来自特拉华州的克里斯·库恩斯。该委员会因负责制定联邦预算法案而被视为权力机构。
参议员们在信中写道,要求开展的独立审查“应审查与行动、人员配置、生活质量(包括心理健康)以及舰上文化相关的战备问题,以及与船员家属的沟通情况”。参议员们还要求,如果审查获得授权,需提出“改善未来水兵和海军陆战队队员长期部署状况”的建议。

福特号航母近日完成了创纪录的长期部署,期间执行了针对委内瑞拉和伊朗的作战任务。林肯号正返回位于圣迭戈的母港,结束类似的长期部署,自2025年12月在关岛短暂停靠后,水兵们几乎没有上岸休整时间。
美国有线电视新闻网此前曾报道,超出海军自身设定的七个月目标时长的超长期部署近年来愈发普遍,自2020年以来,美国本土航母部署的中位时长持续攀升。
福特号和林肯号都出现了影响船员的问题,参议员们要求海军详细说明未来防止类似问题发生的计划。
福特号曾发生一起始于洗衣房的重大火灾,耗时30小时才被扑灭,导致约600名水兵无法使用床铺。
美国有线电视新闻网此前也曾报道,林肯号上的船员遭遇邮件系统中断,以及卫生用品和新鲜食品等物资间歇性短缺的问题。
曹洪在8月14日就林肯号部署发表的声明中,赞扬了船员的耐力,并辩称“我们的年轻男女已经被推到了极限,但他们从未崩溃过”。

Democratic senators demand review of conditions on the USS Abraham Lincoln, other US warships participating in Iran blockade
2026-08-24T20:06:59.492Z / CNN
Two influential Democratic senators are demanding that the Pentagon investigate quality-of-life issues aboard Navy ships participating in the standoff with Iran, according to a letter shared exclusively with CNN.
In the letter sent Monday to Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth and acting Navy Secretary Hung Cao, the lawmakers requested “an immediate independent strategic review” of the recent deployments of the USS Abraham Lincoln and USS Gerald R. Ford aircraft carriers and the USS Benfold destroyer, which spent four days last month without power in the South China Sea after an engineering failure.
The two carriers experienced extended deployments, with the well-being of crew members on the Lincoln gaining scrutiny earlier this month amid reports of difficult conditions.
The demand for an investigation came from the top Democrats on the Senate Appropriations Committee — Patty Murray of Washington, the committee vice chair, and Chris Coons of Delaware, who is also the top Democrat on the committee’s defense panel. The committee is considered powerful because it writes federal budget laws.
The requested independent review, the senators wrote, “should examine readiness issues related to operations, manning, quality of life, including mental health, and culture on the ships as well as communications with the crews’ families.” The senators asked that the review, if authorized, provide recommendations “to improve future extended deployments for sailors and Marines.”

One Thing: ‘Slap in the Face’: The Toll of Trump’s Iran War on the Troops
Recent reports of unsanitary conditions, lack of food, and crew members attempting to jump overboard have only increased concerns about the USS Abraham Lincoln’s nearly nine-month deployment to the Middle East. But what is life actually like on board the aircraft carrier? And how are Trump’s comments downplaying the deployment landing with servicemembers? We talk with the wife of a sailor on board who believes this experience could discourage servicemembers from reenlisting.

The Ford recently completed a record-long deployment that included combat missions against Venezuela and Iran. The Lincoln is on its way home to San Diego to end a similarly long deployment that has featured virtually no shore time for sailors since a December 2025 stopover in Guam.
CNN previously reported that extended deployments beyond the Navy’s own seven-month target length have become increasingly common in recent years, with the median length of US-based aircraft carrier deployments steadily increasing since 2020.
Both the Ford and Lincoln experienced issues impacting their crew members, and the senators asked that the Navy detail plans to prevent similar issues in the future.
The Ford suffered a major fire that started in the ship’s laundry department and required 30 hours to defeat, leading to roughly 600 sailors losing access to their bunks.
And CNN previously reported that sailors aboard the Lincoln experienced disruptions to the mail system and intermittent shortages of supplies such as hygiene items and fresh food.
Cao, in an August 14 statement on the Lincoln’s deployment, praised the crew’s endurance and argued that “our young men and women have been pushed to their limits — but they have never broken.”
