Robert, hopefully you see this. I'm also a Sailor and I'm stationed right outside of Jacksonville FL. You've seen the ship, and now you can see the shore side of the Navy. I'd love to give you a brief tour for a video. Just reply to this comment if you're interested we can go from there brother.

I’m a Navy Veteran also. Rob I really appreciate you spending time on a carrier. Your trip made their day and mine ! Being in squadron VAW-116 we were responsible for the COD from landing to launch. There was never a shortage of helpers from everyone on the deck , to unload the mail from that plane. Now you need to go from Pollywog to a Shellback ceremony.

[@CharlesFisher-b2z]

Rob, enjoyed having you on board with us! It was a pleasure hosting you and Austin. Thanks for the great conversations!

@@deermeatfordinner BIBLE calls us all to be real, sober minded souls, who live holy lives on earth. BIBLE calls nor expect nobody to be: - religious of any kind - monk - nun BIBLE expect us to turn our LACK OF KNOWLEDGE into KNOWLEDGE OF TRUTH (HOSEA 4:6) Each human life on earth: - repent - BORN AGAIN and GO AND SIN NO MORE - be baptised in HOLY SPIRIT /THE COMFORTER - LIVE HOLY = soul, after earthly death in HEAVEN. Easy logic, asks no degree in anything. Bible calls us to give out RIGHTEOUS JUDGMENT, no to keep our mouth shut and support everything with blind eyes and deaf ears. See no evil, speak no evil and hear no evil - that old saying, it belongs to masons, am I right again? The vow of silence of theirs. SOULS, dare to read and study BIBLE (KJV) and search about FREEMASONRY.

[@xenxike500]

Hey mate, can you tell me if that is normal on the greyhound when landing @1:55 the black tubes on the left landing gear seem to be dragging along the deck of the ship? Are they not meant to be connected to something? Just curious and hopefully i hear back from you :). Thanks in advance and God Bless.

[@12982evets]

@@xenxike500 Well they definitely looked like they were connected before touchdown. I'm not familiar with the Greyhound but any tubes contacting that "Non-Skid" surface of the deck are gonna get torn to shreds so your absolute correct I don't think that was normal and probably something malfunctioned with he hydraulics to cause that piston to decompress way too far. Maybe that's what caused the last minute flight cancellation at the end of the video. They always do pre-flight visual inspection and that's when that sort of thing can be found. Aside from the rubber tires and tail hook nothing else should be contacting the deck during landing. Very interesting and good on you for spotting that!

[@xenxike500]

Hey mate thanks for replying :) i appreciate it a 100%, quiet interesting to re watch it and see it hit the deck in slow mo! Interesting aircraft. You seem to be spot on as well with the decompress way too far, it seems to be hitting the deck way too hard. Thank God that nothing major happened and no one was injured and it was picked up before they got back on, if it was that issue. And i have worked with American forces as well as i am Australian Army vet Artillery Gunner! Loved working with your colleagues you guys rock as a nation as well! @@12982evets

The white link on the chain means it’s 50 feet from the anchor. Links are painted different colors every 25 to indicate distance from anchor. Learned this at Sea School when getting my captain’s license to run charters in the future

The white link was also a swivel.

I spent 4 years on the uss eisenhower carrier at the end desert storm. Did 2 med cruises during that time. The white link signifies 50ft from the anchor and also measures how many shots. 2 white links and a red detachable link is 1 shot or 15 fathoms, a fathom is equal to 6ft

The white painted links help determine how much chain they have out each white shackle represents 90 feet, and will be placed, sometimes on either side of a connecting shackle as you start to get to the end, of the shackles they turn yellow, letting you know you’re close to the end then the last remaining chain is painted red letting you know the end is near

[@deermeatfordinner]

Wow, thank you!

[@EmergencyGuy]

The white link on the chain is the 30 fathom indicator unless there’s a pelican hook nearby. That means that the lack of a pelican hook near one or more white links is 30 fathoms undersea. When the red link within the white links appears, you have 15 fathoms of anchor chain left. Once you see the yellow/gold, that’s the danger zone. It means the chain is almost gone.

[@Tmaxfield194]

Wow what an experience brother! You are blessed. Thank your for sharing your life with us, Robert!
