I served aboard the U.S.S. Kitty Hawk. We long suspected cross contamination in the drinking water.

TLDR The jet fuel leaks from pipes into the local water supply and has caused various issues including children's teeth and hair falling out.

Bad headline but not very onioney.

Friend of mine served on the USS Enterprise. Said the water always tasted like JP-5. Nice.

This literally just happened to the USS Nimitz. I’m not positive it’s been completely resolved.
