Hegseth says reports about poor conditions aboard carrier 'misrepresented'

US War Secretary Pete Hegseth says reports about poor conditions aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln aircraft carrier are 'completely misrepresented', Reuters reports. 'We make sure every ship, every crew, every captain has everything we can provide them at every single moment. Some deployments are longer than others, and I have more respect and gratitude for those sailors than anybody. What they do in those high seas in those austere conditions with less port calls — it's incredible,' he tells reporters during a visit to Panama.
