The U.S. Navy is investigating the sudden deaths of three sailors who were all assigned to the USS George Washington, a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier.

A Naval Air Force Atlantic spokesman confirmed in a statement to The Navy Times on Monday that a sailor “was found unresponsive” onboard the Nimitz class warship on April 15, while two other sailors were found dead at off base locations several days earlier.
