The USS New Jersey's, BB 62, Last Unrep

[@gmgg424]

Thanks for the vid. I served on her from 83-87. Worked on the 5inch gun mounts. Did a lot of shot line detail on her. Nice to see a different perspective during an unrep. Beautiful shots of her. Brought back some memories.

I went on her drydock tour

Great video. I'm going to show it to my friend Herb who's 90 and a old Frog man the Seal. He loves to see the old ships when they are in their best up and running. There aren't many like him left just like the old ships. I say enjoy every minute we have the chance to.

Great video. Even the mundane is cool to watch with these ships.

I just wish one of those great battleships had stayed on active duty. The knowledge that sailors would have to keep a battleship operating would be immense and a great show of pride and strength in the U.S. Navy.

Absolutely agree. If one was still in service, even if only as a training ship, the navy would probably have so many volunteers to man her that they’d have to turn people away!

Rest well, yet sleep slightly

The beeping noise is coming the large black radar that rotating atop the New Jersey 0:36 and then later when the fuel lines are connecting there is intense electronic interference with the camera aboard the oiler at 6:30 onwards ...

Still had the old school life rafts.
