🇺🇸-Admiral Brad Cooper Highlights Crew Resilience on USS Abraham Lincoln U.S. Central Command Commander Adm. Brad Cooper issued a statement praising the crew of the USS Abraham Lincoln following his recent visit aboard the aircraft carrier. He described the experience as awe-inspiring and noted that the sailors and Marines demonstrated strong camaraderie, teamwork, and resilience. Cooper pointed out that among the Navy’s 11 active aircraft carriers, the Lincoln currently ranks among those with the lowest number of mental health cases. He acknowledged that extended periods of service at sea present unique challenges and that individuals respond to stress in different ways. The admiral stressed that mental health deserves the same attention as physical and spiritual well-being. He specifically credited the ship’s leadership, particularly senior enlisted leaders in the Chief Petty Officers Mess, for prioritizing mental health and crew resilience. Cooper closed by encouraging the sailors and Marines to continue their strong performance and wishing them fair winds and following seas on their journey home.
