Another Navy warship crisis sailors went FOUR DAYS without power, food, water, or working toilets. The USS Benfold lost power in the South China Sea after its generators failed, leaving roughly 300 sailors without hot meals, flushing toilets, air conditioning, and drinking water in extreme heat. The ship had to be towed to the Philippines for repairs. This is just the latest in a string of Navy breakdowns — it comes as sailors on the USS Abraham Lincoln report broken toilets, food shortages, and worsening mental health after nearly 9 months at sea, and the Navy's $13 billion USS Gerald R. Ford has its own ongoing sewage system failures. Lawmakers and analysts say the Navy is being stretched thin amid the ongoing Iran war and heavy global deployments.
