Sailor on USS Lincoln speaks out about father’s ICE detention

A sailor aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln has publicly spoken out about his father’s detention by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).

Joshua Aviles, who has been deployed at sea for over nine months amid tensions related to Iran, said his father was taken into custody by ICE. The deployment has been ongoing due to reported shortages of clean water, food, and supplies on the ship, according to Aviles.

Aviles did not specify when his father was detained or provide further details about his situation. The Navy has not issued a statement regarding the sailor’s comments or his father’s detention.

The incident highlights the personal challenges faced by service members deployed overseas, especially those with family members involved in immigration issues.
