Lindo !

[@brendaproffitt8520]

Totally awesome and nicely done

[@stponyt]

Very nice video.

[@dapwn3ritswatido]

so are all the workers here USN or are some contracted out to work along side?

[@chiefguns1980]

Supply ship is USNS, crewed primarily by civilians. Another way the govt wastes money. Pay civilians big bucks to do jobs sailors used to do.

[@johnvanriper3363]

I served on the USS Wichita so this is very familiar to me

[@stevenm.8423]

What ocean are they on? It looks very nice.

[@stevenm.8423]

Apathetic Display thanks

[@seadawg1967]

Steve it don't matter this is a daily event in the Navy

[@NickGonsalves]

The Fifth Fleet is a numbered fleet of the United States Navy. It has been responsible for naval forces in the Persian Gulf, Red Sea, Arabian Sea, and parts of the Indian Ocean since 1995 after a 48-year hiatus. It shares a commander and headquarters with U.S. Naval Forces Central Command (NAVCENT) in Bahrain.

[@stephendoing2253]

You think they would have battery powered fork lifts on a carrier

[@Radienleo]

You would think there MIGHT be forklifts at the end. Handjacks? 2 pallets for 10 minutes? at that rate just sit longer for the "enemy" during wartime your both vulnerable, lets go! All these other folks just standing around, im sure there is a mini sitdown articulating forklift to help speed things up.

[@chiefguns1980]

All these guys, handling lines, with no gloves. Recipe for disaster.

[@Q8Duelist]

Lol

[@robertgourlay3761]

Wearing gloves on deck is a hazard gloves snag on a moving wire and your a goner I spent 51 years at sea in the Merchant Navy

[@davidschuff3039]

We were alot faster, on the USS CONCORD AFS-5, 1970-72

[@mangodave45]

Wow, these guys are slow, move it move it move it, Romaine lettuce for a week, apples for 3 days, hurry it up ladies
