I presume they arent mentioning the malody out of respect for the sailor.

Maybe he found out there would be women on board.
Security reasons more than likely. If they say they medevac'd Sailor XYZ, from that you can determine what boat he is on, and which crew, and then you have yourself a deployment cycle.
