Did US soldiers set fire to bedding, clog toilets of warship Gerald R Ford to skip war duty?

US-Israel-Iran War: Amid the war in Iran, the US aircraft carrier Gerald R Ford is retreating to a port in Greece for repairs. The ship was plagued by clogged toilets, and a fire that burnt through the vessel's laundry system and sleeping quarters. While the first has been blamed on the crew...

So mutiny, not an Iran attack? That is a theory as well. I think that is worse though.

Ultra-concise facts:

March 12, 2026: Non-combat dryer-vent fire in aft laundry → 30+ hours damage control (smoke/water/foam), ~600 sailors displaced (sleeping on floors/tables), minor injuries.

Official Navy/CENTCOM: No propulsion/structural damage; ship stayed fully operational, flight ops continued.

Current status (Mar 23): Pierside Souda Bay, Crete for >1 week initial repairs/habitability fixes.

12–14 month sidelining? Speculative (e.g., 19FortyFive analysis) — not official; stems from extreme 9-month deployment fatigue + pre-existing Ford-class issues (plumbing, deferred maint backlog) compounded by fire cleanup/corrosion checks.

No hidden strike evidence: Zero enemy claims, satellite proof, or leaks; concealing major damage on a 4,000-crew ship amid global monitoring is implausible.

Bottom line: Not "just a laundry fire"—it's the tipping point after brutal ops tempo on a complex new-class carrier. No cover-up needed.

Seems suspicious.. We sent a multi-billion dollar war machine to the front with leaky toilets and faulty laundry room wiring and then withdrew it from theater after two weeks? At $8M per day to move the thing this is incompetence or we were attacked and embarrassed. Either way is pretty bad, right?

Your tax dollars at work. Going to try to pin it on Trump?

"Every day that the entire crew is present on the ship, a trouble call has been made for ship's force personnel to repair or unclog a portion of the VCHT system, since June 2023," reads an undated document provided by the Navy, through a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request.

The carrier has called for help outside the ship 42 times since 2023. The rate of calls is increasing, with 32 calls happening in 2025;12 calls were made after the carrier started its recent deployment in June.

I think the guy who deployed them should know what state it is in. I think it was fine but got attacked... but if not, which is possible, I think it is worse that we sent a leaky bucket full of troops to protect other troops in it. That is ALL on this administration. Right?

Silly old Pentagon .

But the good news is that those lovely Iranians are lighting up the night sky with their Hyper Sonic Missiles .
Helping those still on US bases to see straight and those trying to see by candle light in Israel .

It's been having problems since it was commissioned. That's why there are engineers on board, to fix and maintain.

Why should it be? Navy is responsible for reporting readiness. The Admiral could probably opine better on this subject than me.

You don't go to war with what you'd like but what you have at the time. This is no exception.

Tell me how it got from the Indian Ocean all the way to Crete without any pictures of attack damage? That would be a great propaganda ting for Iran. The best they've provided is AI videos.
