The moves comes at the end of a month that saw three sailors aboard the ship die via suicide, after a previously undisclosed string of suicides going back to at least July of last year.


There are a few thousand guys on board.

My ship had less than 300 people and during an 18 month period there were three suicides (plus a couple of other guys that had to be sent off for mental breakdowns).

It happens.

Now throw in trannies etc. and it isn’t surprising to see the numbers rise even more.

This was rather predictable imho.

A ship with poor morale would see an even greater spike in these events. Just my .02.

According to the commanding officer, the ship currently has 422 sailors living on board. Since sailors typically do not receive an allowance for housing until the E-5 rank, those living on board a ship while it's in a shipyard tend to be the most junior crew members.
