在美国与伊朗新一轮谈判即将开启之际，美方持续对伊朗施加军事压力，美军"杰拉尔德·R·福特"号航 母打击群近日已抵达希腊克里特岛进行补给。然而，据美国媒体报道，这艘号称全球最大、造价最高的 核动力航母却屡遭故障困扰——厕所堵塞排污失灵，舰上船员士气低落。 据美国《华尔街日报》援引一名海军官员的话报道，"福特"号航母的真空排污系统频繁出现故障，舰上 约650个厕所几乎每天都需要维修。另据印度《经济时报》报道，船员上厕所有时需排队超过45分钟。 一名船员家属向《华尔街日报》透露，厕所堵塞的原因可能是有人将垃圾扔进底层甲板的马桶。 美国全国公共广播电台今年1月曾发布相关报道说，"福特"号的工程部门早在去年3月就向美军高层发邮 件反映厕所问题不断加剧，"4天内发生205起故障，维修人员每天要工作19个小时才能勉强维持"。 在美国与伊朗新一轮谈判即将开启之际，美方持续对伊朗施加军事压力，美军"杰拉尔德·R·福特"号航 母打击群近日已抵达希腊克里特岛进行补给。然而，据美国媒体报道，这艘号称全球最大、造价最高的 核动力航母却屡遭故障困扰——厕所堵塞排污失灵，舰上船员士气低落。 据美国《华尔街日报》援引一名海军官员的话报道，" ...

【文/观察者网 柳白】特朗普政府磨刀霍霍四处点火，苦了那群为其超负荷卖命的美军士兵。 《华尔街日报》2月21日刊文披露，自去年6月以来，"福特"号航母千里迢迢从地中海赶往加勒比海，如 今又再次穿越大西洋赶回中东威慑伊朗，时长8个月的海上部署，已将舰员的耐受力逼近极限：错过亲 人葬礼和孩子成长不谈，就连舰上的厕所和污水系统也故障频现，不少人因此萌生退役想法。 "福特"号在2025年6月24日离开诺福克港，之后该舰从10月份开始参加了加勒比地区的军事行动，包括 为委内瑞拉行动提供援助。值得一提的是，在去年6月12日爆发的以伊冲突期间，"福特"号航母位于地 中海地区，未能参加"午夜重锤"行动。 卫星照片显示，"福特"号已于周五（20日）穿过直布罗陀海峡，向东航行。 根据《华尔街日报》对"福特"号航母上水兵及其家属的采访，随着美伊局势升温，特朗普第二次决定延 长"福特"号航母的部署，正在对舰员及其家庭造成巨大冲击。一些水兵已开始考虑在返回母港后离开海 军。 "福特"号舰长戴维·斯卡罗西承认，再次延长部署让人"难以接受"，就连他自己也感到意外。 美国退役海军少将马克·蒙哥马利表示，和平时期航母部署通常为6个月，规划人员 ...
