Thanks for posting this vid. This vid brings back fond memories: the first time I witnessed a sunrise was the day after I joined the Navy - July 28, 1964 - at the Great Lakes Naval Training Center. I was only 17 at the time. The first time I saw the ocean was when I served on board the USS Kitty Hawk circa June 1965. I was based at NAS Miramar @ VF-121 F-4 squadron. I did a week on board the Kitty Hawk as a brown shirt plane captain. In November 1965 transferred to the USS Bennington and served as a ships company blue shirt in V-1 Division. Yup, I saw a lot of sun rises on board the Bennington. I’ll never forget learning the pathways of the ship and learning what those yellow patches on the wall meant. I learned them to perfection and after a month or so never got lost on the Bennington. As I watched this video, I recognized some of the sounds and could almost smell the fuel, hydraulic fluid and humanity -- of the ship. Those sounds and smells will stay with me forever. I matured from an immature teenager to a man during my ’kitty cruse’ service in the Navy and if I could regenerate these tired old 75-year-old bones and body --- WOULD SERVE AGAIN ON BOARD A CARRIER IN A HEART BEAT. Just my 2¢

I did 2 Med cruises on Nimitz '75-'79 and watching this really took me back. The spaces, corridors, places to eat, and all the nooks and crannies. You could get lost quite easily but more importantly, find yourself in a place where your not supposed to be so sightseeing wasn't a normal practice. Like living in a town you generally only go where you need to be and stay in your own neighborhood. I wasn't ships company but part of the airwing. VA-35 Black Panthers.

A few "floor plan" changes on the 2nd deck since I was on deployment on the NIMITZ in 1993. For that entire Persian Gulf deployment (Operation Southern Watch) my entire world was no more than 40 or 50 ft. from my berthing space. Port side, about Frame 136 or so; Personnel Office where I worked was right above our berthing space, which was a 9-rack berthing on the 3rd deck along the hull. At the top of the ladder was our Admin head, right next to it was a repair locker which was my GQ station; from there onto the mess decks where the First Class Mess was right in front of me -- my refuge when I wasn't in the office or in berthing. Only time I had to walk anywhere else was to go shopping -- either on the 02 level port-side convenience store, or the "department store" on the 3rd deck just forward of Reactors. Though I was ship's company I have to say that it was the mellowest deployment I ever made; our LCPO and Admin Officer did us right. Best work and berthing spaces imaginable.

Other than flat screens, women on board and phone booths, it looked very much the same.

It still had wood decks and I'd have given anything to take a piece of it with me when it was decommissioned.

Also had 3 barber shops, vending machines. laundry and dry cleaning. I was an "SH" and worked in all of them at one time or another. Coke & Pepsi products came in by the semi-truckload, often 3 trucks at a time prior to deployment. Often took on 100,000 cases at a time and that only lasted a couple of months.

To all people that viewed this video. Getting around a ship of this size or for any ship in Navy it is very easy to find your way. Just so you know, you get around by using frame numbers. You see many frame numbers and the numbers are select. Such as for demo purpose a number may say 03-21-36 It means 3 deck above main deck frame 21 back from center of ship and frame 36 from starboard. That was when I was in Boot Camp. Now If it is the same no problems.
@ruckusmalone94196 жыл бұрын
That is wrong. 03-21-36 ... 03 means it's 3 decks or (ladders) up from main deck (on a carrier) which is the hangar deck. 21 means it's 21 frames ( 4 feet per frame) from the forward part of the ship after the 'for castle'. And the last number denotes how far it is from the center line of the ship.

@wadesworld62505 жыл бұрын
It is not easy to get around a carrier, frame numbers or not. You learn the way to your work spaces and berthing first. As the months go by, you slowly learn more areas of the ship. But there are always areas which are unfamiliar to you. I wasn't an airdale, so the decks above the hangar bay were not familiar to me (except the crows-nest and bridge). The engineering spaces were off-limits to those not in engineering, same for the weapons spaces.

Sort of a embarrassing that a naval officer can not find his way around his own ship. A 90 day wonder.

It's the morning of 12-10-1213, the big sailboat of Captain Achab is sailing the seven seas hunting for his usual enemy: Moby Dick. The sun is about to raise, when all of a sudden a shout shakes the whole boat: "WHALE AT SEA! WHALE AT SEA!", yells the sailor on top of the mainmast. Captain Achab rushes out of his bed, climbs the stairs by twos, despite his wooden leg, slams outwards the door to the main bridge, quickly approach his second in command, stealing the spyglass from his hands: "Give it to me!", barks in his raunchy voice. Captain Achab looks in the spyglass as his own life depends on it, then all of a sudden yells to the whole boat: "ARE YOU ALL OUT OF YOUR FUCKING MINDS?? That's not Moby Dick, you idiots!! That's the Nimitz!! Are we hunting for aircraft carriers now?? Where is the boatswain?? Reverse the course of the boat, let's get the fuck out of here, before they see us!".

Sure does bring on a trip down memory lane! Plankowner USS Boxer LHD4! Not quite the same as a big deck but fully embarked crew and Marines we had about 4500 people on board! I remember the line for dinner was crazy long! We usually just ate sandwiches from sack lunches or dig up one of the better mre's!

A couple of notes about the video above. It starts somewhere in Officer's Country with their associated mess. The dude has a two person berth, which indicates a higher position up the Zero, "O," the officer food chain. A close inspection of the logo on the hatch across the passage identifies it as the logo of the Little Beavers Destroyer Squadron 23. This made me assume the quarters across the passage are for the command/liason of this destroyer squad escorting the Nimitz. That made me take a closer look at his door, which is also emblazened with another logo, looking like a knight with shield... which is that of Strike Fighter Squadron 154 of Carrier Air Wing Eleven, AKA, the Black Knights, which is what we see on his berth door. So, it is likely we are dealing with a pilot of the Black Knights... Edit/Added, from Wiki... "... bringing the squadron to CVW-11 aboard USS Nimitz in 2012."

Me gusta mucho los viajes en el tiempo,creo que de alguna manera todos viajamos así cuando estamos en Estados especiales. Me agrada mucho ver el portaaviones de la famosa película y veo que la realidad supera a la fantasía . Gracias amigos por el vídeo y felicidades por trabajar en un lugar tan mágico de un país maravilloso cómo es "América" Dios os bendiga siempre y abrazos desde un pueblo cerca de Rota -Espana.
