USS Lincoln Ends Historic 250-Day Deployment | Spokane News
Description
The USS Abraham Lincoln just shattered records—sailing over 250 straight days at sea, longer than any carrier in history. After leaving San Diego in November 2025 and stretching its mission to nine months with only a quick Guam stop, whispers are spreading that it’s finally heading home, possibly docking in Thailand by early September. This comes as the USS George Washington arrives in the Arabian Sea, hinting at shifting regional operations. Crews endured tough conditions, with reports of meager meals like boiled carrots and dry meat patties during their grueling deployment. While officials stay tight-lipped for security reasons, Senator Jack Reed confirmed they’re expected back within weeks. Once they return to San Diego, the ship may relocate permanently to Bremerton, Washington—marking the end of an epic, record-breaking voyage.
