USS Boxer (LHD-4) is back in San Diego, Calif., after suffering an engineering casualty, forcing the big deck amphibious warship to return for repairs, USNI News has learned.

Boxer and elements of the 15th Marine Expeditionary Unit left on April 1 for a Pacific deployment that had been on hold due in part to maintenance issues on the big deck. Following the departure, Boxer operated off the coast of California recertifying Marines with MV-22B Ospreys after a grounding that was lifted last month.

      There's growing disquiet in the military. The Iran war made it worse

      All the unethical, illegal things trump is doing is catching up to him. And now trump has given Iran control of the Straights of Hormuz which has made this issue of Iran worse than what it was before the war. Threatening and insulting our allies instead of building a consensus, Threatening and insulting NATO instead of building a consensus, giving Israel full reign in their attacks which is causing the average taxpayer to not only question the current administration, but to question our own military. The uptick is part of a larger pattern of military members seeking ways to end their service, according to NPR interviews with several organizations like Galvin's and military members who deal directly with these issues. While there is no hard contemporaneous data on the number of members seeking to exit, the people NPR spoke to for this story say they have seen undeniable cracks in the military's ability to retain troops, largely due to low morale or ethical concerns.
