US Navy Counters Houthi Misinformation with Social Media Campaign

Captain of the USS Dwight D. Eisenhower leverages online platforms to combat false claims and boost crew morale.

  • The Houthi rebels have falsely claimed multiple times that they hit or sank the USS Dwight D. Eisenhower.
  • Captain Christopher Hill uses social media to debunk these claims and highlight daily life on the carrier.
  • Hill's posts include images of flight operations, crew activities, and lighthearted content like 'Taco Tuesday.'
  • The Eisenhower has been the most-deployed carrier in the US fleet over the last five years.
  • Maintaining morale is a key focus as the crew faces prolonged deployment and ongoing combat conditions.
