Sen. Mark Kelly says USS Lincoln sailors 'can't get basic needs met'

“Democratic Sen. Mark Kelly of Arizona is calling for an investigation into conditions aboard the USS Abraham Lincoln, citing an account from the grandmother of a sailor who said her grandson has lost significant weight during the carrier's extended deployment.

Kelly, a former Navy combat pilot who sits on the Senate Armed Services Committee, told Morning Edition that the woman described her grandson as already thin when he joined the Navy and said he now appears to have lost 20 to 25 pounds.

"He's struggling," Kelly said, recounting his conversation with the soldier's grandmother. "It's depressing, and it's a very difficult situation."

Kelly also criticized what he described as dismissive responses from President Trump and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth to concerns about conditions aboard the Lincoln.

Kelly said he and other lawmakers are seeking an investigation and want a bipartisan congressional delegation to visit the carrier and assess conditions firsthand.”

Trying to find a story I heard recently on NPR about a program helping first responders follow/find out outcomes of those they helped

I’ve tried so many different Google searches and haven’t been able to find the story. It had to do with depression in first responders and a program helping them to find out what happened to those they’ve helped. It mentioned wanting to know their work mattered. Does this ring a bell for anyone?
