I think that's an implication.
>>22728652
It was probably someone's job to work out exactly how many people they'd need for the circumference of the ship plus a given amount of space in between them.
>>22728757

LOL no. Here's the original part 2. Whoever stitched it together forgot to include it.
>>22728885

>Is serving on one of these things just a nonstop party 24/7?
It's like working in an office building and you're not allowed to leave and you're not allowed on the deck unless you work there and you have to sleep surrounded by engines.
>>22728652
I'd join the military for four jobs, in this specific order:
1. Fighter pilot, USAF
2. Attack helicopter pilot, US Army or USMC
3. Tank crew, US Army or USMC
4. Any position working on the flight deck of an aircraft carrier, USN or USMC
>>22728652
According to a close Navy friend of mine, no. He was on the Stennis.
According to him being in port was pretty fun. Got to go to Thailand, Dubai, and I think somewhere else. He had a chance to work on the deck for some peculiar reason (some Navy jargon.) Said that was interesting. Yet according to him it was really grueling and miserable overall.
On a brighter note he said people don't tend to think about suicide all that often because they simply don't have the time.
I think he worked sixteen hour days.

From what I'm told life on a carrier is pretty much a high school, but with semen.
I'll let you be the judge though. Watch all the episodes. You're in for a hell of a ride.
>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VaiwCcWcIq8
Yes, but only if you're a pilot. They are the fucking kings.
>>22728684
I always wondered how that would be, knowing you don't get stationed on a Nimitz, but the floating museum that was around when the MiG-17 was still considered hot shit...
Bumping for interest.

Are smaller ships less highschool-ish?
>>22729320
More like a rural highschool.
Is it true that after about 2 weeks aboard a ship the grossest ugliest fattest hog lady looks likes a 10/10? Is everybody fucking everyone? and if so, where? on a shit with no privacy (especially a submarine) where do you find a little space to bone. Assuming you care.
>>22728951
I wouldn't join the military except to be an operator, because everything else sounds like the worst possible job/life style ever.
>>22729387
you're not allowed to you retard
they actually have people who are tasked to go around checking hidden places/closets for people fucking
>>22729457
Oh man, I hope one of those guys is on /k/. I bet they have some great stories to tell.
>>22729387
No. Most ships have interwebs. If not then magazines and saved pictures.
>know people who work on Arctic boats all of them have a lifetime supply of porn.
>>22729428
And you think being an "Operator" is a good life style?
What's good about high tempo deployment schedules, divorces, drug/alcohol addiction, PTSD, having your friends die and combat injuries?
Go back to watching your glorified Navy SEALs films.
>>22729498
there was an NPR episode on life on board a carrier and they interview one of those guys
it sounds like a shit detail given out to someone who got in trouble and doesn't have an important job on the flight deck or engine room

I really don't understand why the Enterprise was in service as long as it was. The money spent in maintenance keeping it afloat must have added up to another Nimitz or two.

You can waste an infinite amount of money over 70 years just so long as the individual number per year is not too big.

this was filmed around 2005 or so, in one of the later episodes they get to talking about their feelings about the Iraq war, its after no WMDs were found and the mission suddenly changed to "spreading democracy in the middle east" so lots of people are saying I just hope we can look back at this and see that it was a turning point when the middle east started to become free like back home
wonder what they would think now that Iraq is FAR worse than it ever was under Saddam and we might have to fight another war simply because we fucked it up so badly

Also had an air rifle shooting range in one of the deck one rooms.

What the hell? A crew of 5,000 and the people working the carrier deck have to work 16-18 hour days? How can they not have enough crew to work shifts?

Have no friends, got a decent pain tolerance, though im no super man.
Honestly, can I some how train like I was in the military, I wanted to form a militia, something for my friends to do and if we just so happen to come across a recruiting place, enlist. How can I form a militia with military quality.
>>22735286
>How can I form a militia with military quality.
go to the military, learn operator skills, become and operator. make connections in contacts with other operators. when you get out, use those contacts to form your militia
that's how I'd do it.
>>22733743
>i thought the usa had seperation of church and state in its constitution
There is an establishment clause but there is nothing in the constitution that declares a separation of church and state. And literally every military has chaplains, you have to be 10 to not know this.

Because Religion hasn't been a core dynamic of the USA since the fucking pilgrims right? You sound like a high school drop out who gets all his information from trash like slate and huffpo.

Cause they have their own jobs.
You also can't just grab random people to work on the flight deck. Outside of actual combat, working on the flight deck is one of the most dangerous jobs in America. You just cycle a bunch of unexperienced fucks out there.

>>22736606

>>22736614
You should try interviewing some people who have actually served on a flight deck. I haven't worked up there personally, but I knew some who have. I worked with them on a temporary duty on the mess decks and became friends with a few.
First off, flight ops don't happen every day. Second, from what they've told me, you get into a routine and just go about what your supposed to. There's no time to be exhausted.
Flight decks are inherently dangerous. There is so many moving parts, both figuratively and literally, that you can't keep track of them. You may be part of a group moving a plane while dozens of other events are happening at the same time that you know nothing about. You have to trust that the flight deck coordinator (fuck if i remember what that guy is called) knows what he's doing and most importantly, keep your head on a swivel as they say.
That being said, it's more dangerous to take unexperienced, untrained personnel (who are also exhausted mind you, maybe not as much, but still very much are) and putting them on the flight deck.
>>22736829
Where did I say use untrained personnel? I just wonder why they don't have enough trained deck crew for shifts, so it would be an 8-9 hour day instead of 16-18. Everyone is less exhausted, fewer accidents.
>>22736939
I thought when you mentioned a crew of 5,000, you meant take people from the rest of the crew. My bad.
It's a combination of cost, space issues, and manpower shortages for trained personnel. Yes, no matter what the manpower situations overall, shops always seemed to be hurting on people. But cost and space are probably the biggest issues. The military is cheap as shit. If they can get something done (that's actually important) with X amount people, they'll decide to use less anyway.
Btw, they do work in shifts iirc, but it's still very shitty.

Welcome to America.
>>22736614
No, because a flight deck is filled with a metric assload of things that will maul you in so many creative ways. If nothing else, jet blast will blow you over the side. Impacting the water from 60 feet up will fuck your world. That's if you're lucky. If you're unlucky, it cooks you like a moth in a candle before tossing you over the side. Jet intakes will suck the clothes off your back from a dozen feet away. You better hope that does enough damage to shut it down, because you're following by about half a second. You come out the other end as cooked chunks. You get good coverage, though. About an acre, iirc.
Helo rotors will take fist sized chunks out of your skull, about 2 per second. Tail rotors give you the vertical slice and toss treatment. Getting caught in a cat launch just throws you off the bow, although there's enough blunt force trauma for it to be in pieces. Oh yeah, cats are steam powered. That'll cook pieces right off of you.
Hydraulic shit everywhere, just waiting to pinch off bits, from fingers to legs to the top half of your head.
Arrestor cables will take your legs off at the navel.
And this is all when things are working properly.
When something breaks, you have high pressure fluids waiting to speed fillet your thoracic cavity, and high speed junk flying around everywhere, maybe a pressurized fuel fire blowtorching everything around, tons of damaged aircraft rampaging around, maybe loose munitions adding to the festivities and that one guy whose headgear caught fire running around until a prop stops him.
That's why flight decks are dangerous.

While I was on it (01-05), we used all of them most the time. Of course, for the first year or so while I was there, we were in port fixing everything so that might have been why it all wasn't fucked. Underway, if training and maintenance needed it, we could use less, but there was always some important thing that we needed all our speed for or the old man wanted extra redundancy for.
There was a couple times when E would be E and shit all over us, but it was still mostly working- albeit with some sleepless nights.

It isn't his job to berate his grown daughter.
If you wanna decide who is unfit for duty, prove yourself good enough to be promoted to a position to decide such things. Armchair officer...
>>22742134
>0 pullups
why the fuck is this allowed? seriously? This is one of the most important lifts and tests of strength. Why isn't the requirement stricter?
>>22738847
Yeah that was pretty funny.
>>22742129
>hurr durr I was just trolling
>>22742198
Because in the chair force you don't use your arms for much other than jacking off and pressing buttons
>>22742230
Its pretty obvious that he was making a joke
>>22742198
What are they gonna use it for in the Chair Force?
Lift up stuff? lol
That being said I'm debating whether joining the Navy or the AF.

so glad i was a herky bird crew chief in the usaf, i just went from gas station to gas station breaking down in the nice places and having our pilot refuse base housing errrrytime
feels good man, my 6 years was a drunken party
We need a separate thread just for this "Carrier" mini-series. This shit is great.
>>22746911
Still leaking oil, how the fuck...
>>22743450
I saw that film about 6 times. It's mandatory at every firefighting school. Then right afterward they have you go into the main space fire simulator.
>>22747103
I think it stopped recently
My friend wants to join the Navy so he gets free college from the GI bill, is this a good idea?

Surely only for testing right? or am I not seeing something

Marines were supposed to be disbanded after WWII as they are rudundant, but movies with John Wayne prevented them from being disbanded. Over time their role has expanded but they still are mostly useless.

Yes, but in order to be competitive for a decent pilot slot you need to be in the 90s.

>i thought the usa had seperation of church and state in its constitution
It doesn't. The Congress isn't allowed to make laws supporting one religion over another, but individuals in the government are still allowed to do their own religious thing thing.
>>22740184
>police officer who can't capitalize their I's
Were you fired for writing shitty reports?
>>22749914
Do pilots do that G force testing thing you see in cartoons? you know where they spin you around in a giant merry-go-round?
Or is that just for R and D?
>>22749934
To add, all that the US's separation of Church and State is..is that our Govt can't endorse and enforce any particular religion. But that doesn't mean it can't offer religious services to the people who want them. It also can't stop you from worshipping anything either.
>The First Amendment (Amendment I) to the United States Constitution prohibits the making of any law respecting an establishment of religion, impeding the free exercise of religion, abridging the freedom of speech, infringing on the freedom of the press, interfering with the right to peaceably assemble or prohibiting the petitioning for a governmental redress of grievances. It was adopted on December 15, 1791, as one of the ten amendments that constitute the Bill of Rights.

He's not. When send people to fight and kill and die, you need them prepared in every way possible.
The USA military has chaplains for Muslims (Sunni, Shiite, and all the others), Judaism (and all their varieties), all major Christian denominations, Hindus, Buddhists, Wiccans, and probably some that I don't know about.
>>22735990
>Well damn, I just want a small army of men where we can train, shoot and drink.

>>22750027
It's an urban legend, but somewhat true as there have been attempts to disband the marines after nearly every major war

As a sailor that lives in Guam, I can definitely confirm this. Boonie cocks and diabetes everywhere
Are there any other documentaries like Carrier?
>>22738936
They do in the US now. Not all subs, but some of the SSGNs do at least.

The only mention of religion in the Constitution is that the government cannot make a rule about religion. It says absolutely nothing on practicing.
