The US Navy has denied reports of food shortages on board two major vessels participating in the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz.

Yesterday USA Today reported crew aboard the aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln and amphibious assault ship USS Tripoli were not getting enough to eat.

One photo taken by a Marine showed a mostly empty lunch tray with a single scoop of shredded meat and one tortilla.

    We have the biggest ships with the best blockades. They say to me, “you can’t blockade that ship, it’s got our supplies.” Then I blockade it, just like that. Big, beautiful blockades.

      Are you guys serious? I typed this comment, realized I had misclicked meaning to answer to one comment up, and deleted it within 30seconds.

      How is that deleted comment collecting up- and downvotes hours later? 😂
