Also of note, the US will send carriers to help in disaster relief to hand out supplies, offer medical treatment on board, and in some cases the ship can be plugged into a town power grid if the power is out and use the generators to supply power. That's what makes carriers great, they don't just project power, they render aid as well. We've come a long way from pilots skipping biplanes across the USS Langley to modern super carriers

The Hanger Deck is 209 m long, 34 m wide, and 8 m high. A Supercarrier actually has a crew of 5200 to 6000 at Sea for half a year at a time. Only 1000 +/- have jobs that let them see sunshine, so the rest of the crew is inside 24/7.
@shawnadams14602 жыл бұрын
True only some of the jobs are on the flight deck and hanger bay, but lets be honest they see the sunshine either near the open air areas (like the smoking sponsons) and seeing out to sea through the hanger bay doors which are open most of the time if not for inclement weather.

I had the privilege to be an officer on a couple of the smaller sized carriers the US Navy has and I wouldn't trade that time for anything. While all the jobs are difficult, I have to give the greatest recognition to the sailors that cooked our food and cleaned the galleys as they have some of the hardest times. Especially since many of them are junior sailors new to the ship that are on a rotation for a few months working from early hours (0500) to late (2000 or later). Some fun facts that really drive home how huge these things really are: - When driving the ship, I had to be aware of when those flight deck elevators were in use. They actually limit how much the ship can turn since they're so big that a sharp turn could potentially cause them to hit the water when they are lowered. - When refuelling at sea, both the carrier and the refuelling ship travel parallel to each other at the same speed in the water. Since both ships are so big, the water they push out of the way while moving creates a current in between them. If either ship gets too close to the other, one will get caught in this current and will be dragged into the other ship.

My dad is retired Navy and I was fortunate enough to go on an anniversary cruise on the USS Enterprise when I was about 7 years old. It's a day I have never forgotten as I got to travel all over the ship, including the hanger and various other departments on the ship. I got to ride on one of those large elevators and it was kind of scary because the floor was a grate that you can see the ocean through as the ship was moving and the elevator was being lowered. Seeing the water getting closer was a bit scary, especially only being 7 years old and unused to it. They also had an Air Show with the aircraft taking off and doing demonstrations near the ship for the crowd on board to watch. The cruise started in the San Francisco Bay and we traveled out to the Pacific underneath the Golden Gate Bridge. A very memorable day.

You can see my job shown at 7:04, we were the red shirts you see in the aircraft hanger and on deck. They are definitely floating cities. ONe thing I would correct on this would be we more often then not had nearly FIVE THOUSAND sailors on a fully staffed deployment.

There’s a famous story that, following a terrible storm in the Caribbean, various nations sat and talked about what they could donate to the recovery efforts. An American Navy officer offered to have a carrier on station w/in hours. Another nation’s representative said, “These people have been through a storm! What will you then do with your carrier, bomb them?” With much patience the Naval officer explained that one of our carriers can generate enough electrical power to sustain itself and power a small city. The carrier’s helicopters can provide supplies and conduct rescue missions several hundred miles away. The carrier had a 300 bed hospital with every modern medical device: MRIs, X-ray machines, surgery suites staffed with some of the best trauma surgeons on the planet. The carrier has a huge desalination plant that can take in salt water and convert it to fresh water in incredible amounts. The carrier can replace a city’s weather and commercial air radars and act as a city’s air traffic controllers controlling supply and rescue flights until the city’s airport could be restored and all that without ever leaving the carrier. Each carrier has a complement of United States marines and a host of strong, sweaty sailors that can go ashore and help with recovery efforts on the ground. Our carriers can supply WiFi and internet capabilities for itself and a city to keep broken communications up and running. Telephone, banking, internet and many other features of a modern city can be run through an aircraft carrier. They are, to be sure, ferocious weapons of war but also great facilitators and assistance in times of peace or disaster.

I don't think the translator understands the difference between the words "too" and "so". When someone says something is "too much", they're saying that it's more than necessary. When someone says it's "so much", they are simply observing the amount/size. At 6:18, when Babu says "that's too much" in regards to the 4 elevators, what he really means to say is "that's so much". Why would Babu say that 4 elevators is too many? Would 2 or 3 be better? You see how the translation means something completely different to what Babu actually said? Translators, learn the difference between "so" and "too". It will help us viewers understand what they're saying so much better (see how I didn't say "too much better"?).
