Life at Sea: Navy Ship
Вставка
- Опубліковано 17 сер 2020
- Life on a ship at sea brings people together. Out here, we work hard and play just as hard. See what it’s like to spend your days out at sea: bit.ly/2EekNOg.
Few can say they’ve hit golf balls off the back of a destroyer. But after a few weeks on a Navy ship, you’ll have done much more than that. Sailors have ice cream socials, karaoke nights, poker and basketball tournaments, play video games and even family meals. Our ships range in size from “floating cities,” like aircraft carriers which transport thousands of Sailors, to destroyers, which may carry just 300. Whether you’re working in the kitchen, the engine room, the flight deck or at the helm, it takes everyone to execute a successful mission.
I’m literally at the airport sitting around waiting for the plane to take me to boot camp and this uploads. What are the odds lol. Wish me luck

Hopefully next time you login you’ll be a Sailor! Good luck 🍀
Good luck!👍
Don’t get in ROM
So how was it ?
No gyms, no emails, no karaoke night, no ice cream socials. But we did have swim calls a couple of times. Got chased out of the water once by a shark.
I served 10 active years roughly give or take a few months on two different coasts on three different ships and absolutely do not regret a second of it despite the trouble i managed to get my dumbass into! I had a blast in the '80s all over the world! You can't put a price on that!!!!!! 😎👍
My 8 years was well worth it... would go back in a heartbeat.
HOOYAH ⚓
to serve the united states for 20 years like i did.
I had this on full volume by accident at 12 am and the whistle blow at the beginning scared me so bad
😆
WOW! What a different Navy than myself . my pops and grandfather went through......if you can get in...do it now!!!!! FC1(SW) 3rd Gen. USN 85-96
I wouldn’t get in now tbh because of COVID but that’s my preference from what i experienced
It’s very different but its not near as nice as it seems in this vid 😐
Running on a treadmill in the helo hanger as the shipped rocked was challenging since it was position facing the port side. Uphill, downhill, uphill every few second. The ones in the weight room faced forward, so just staying in the middle of the treadmill was a challenge. I miss being on a cruiser... had a blast!
Would be kinda fun during crazy storms with lightning.
Found that even a month long underway running on the treadmill daily drastically increased my overall mile time when we pulled back into port, that or it was the amount of ladder wells I ran up and down. The rocking of the ship made it exciting to workout on.
I'm so excited to serve, I leave next month the 17th as an MC rate!
Welcome to the rate, the schools pretty tough, good luck, hope you make it
waiting on my ship date just did Meps this week
you all are going to hate it.
NavyFury 011 hes doing mechanic stuff in that hot space right?? my ex was a mechanic in norfolk
@@rileycurry65 sometimes this strait FAX smh
Thank you for your service.................
Go Navy. God bless America!
I've been mulling over the idea of being an officer in a military branch for a few years now, off and on. Someone who was in the Navy recommended it to me, though I didn't think life on a ship would be fun, nor am I a big fan of swimming... but lately I've come around and found this video, which seems to debunk my misperception of "getting no sunlight, trapped indoors on a ship". The Navy seems to have positions in civil engineering and certainly many with GIS and geographics... I can speak Spanish and Portuguese but I'm rusty. The US Navy really looks like an INCREDIBLE place to be, see the world, do something honorable and meaningful. I'm really struggling post-college in a career path; all jobs just sound annoying and sucky to me. If someone's going to boss me around, I want them to own it and have honor, like a superior officer would in the military. I want to be part of a workplace that is a lifestyle and sees the human dignity in those around them. I may just reach out to a Navy recruiter soon, I just don't want to do so and then shy away and have them give up on me. I just really want to be part of a culture that respects me, my skills, and my dignity.
HOOYAH! Whenever you're ready feel free to chat with a recruiter to ask them questions, even before you enlist: bit.ly/3v4j8jj
Consider serving on the the USS Blue Ridge. Big Blue is home ported in YOKOSUKA, Japan, hits many Far East ports, and is the 7th fleet flagship. You want to travel... it's the USS Blue Ridge for sure!
Do u get to pick where u want to serve?
Hi there, thank you for reaching out. An Enlisted Sailor in the Navy might be deployed all across the world and have a variety of work environments including ships, submarines, aircraft carriers or on shore. It truly depends on your job or "rate" and the need for your specific skill set in a certain place.
IM HERE IN YOKOSUKA RIGHT NOW AND ITS AMAZING!!
I was on uss oklahoma city 1977 1979 the blue ridge took it place in 1979. In my 2 years on board I travel all ver Asia and also Australia. I spent 20 years in the navy on 6 ships most of it overseas have a lot good memories.
I love the US Navy man what camraderie !!

Go Navy! I was an AQ plus worked on the roof as a Brown Shirt. Grateful I could do it! VF-102 Diamond Backs. 1962-1966.

@@americasnavy HOOYAH NAVY

Im starting the process june 1
What is your rate ?
Wowwww..Cry's in MCM sailor.
20 years service!
Same here.
Spent 7 days out at sea. Wobbly legs and anti nausea medicine are a godsend. Well the wobbly legs is kinda funny back on land. 😅
Im about to enlist. Im so ready
HOOYAH!
I really wanna enlist in the navy and become a corpseman and travel but I have motion sickness and I don’t know if it would be smart to enlist with that ☹️. I’m gonna enlist in the army to become a combat medic but I always look back at navy videos and think what it would be like to be part of it.
Do not become a Corpsman... advancement rate is unbelievably low...go for anything but medical right now...
Go for it I have terrible motion sickness I have been out twice and the medicine they provide aboard the ship helps a lot..
Gonna hate your life in the Army
@@Sparximus3 ? They’re paying bonuses now for advanced medical fields because of the severe lack of people in advanced technical fields, maybe things were different a year ago? But they’re literally asking for corpsman in advanced fields now, at least according to the navy website
Join the army hooah!
GREAT.
HOOYAH ⚓️
Joining when I graduate in 23.
HOOYAH!!!

Do it brother, best decision you'll ever make
Being the navy looks like fun
It’s fun and games until you have to get yelled at for a hour 😂
I always describe my time in with a quote from A Tale of Two Cities: It was the best of times. it was the worst if times. 😉 I literally traveled around the world and visited many countries and peoples, but I also delt with a lot of stress while in the Persion Gulf during the Iran/Iraq war (Operation Earnest Will).
It’s not
Guys there are pros right?
Whether or not it's fun it's totally up to you, your attitude, your command, and your location. A command can suck and bring you down hard! You might think Florida is for you and then find out it's not! You might get stuck in Norfolk Virginia and end up loving it! But the common denominator and those scenarios is your attitude, what can you do to make it better? 😎👍
I regret the army. I’m joining the Navy⚓️
Submariners watching this like 😒
When I was in I was with helicopter squadrons we would work 12 on 12 off and we never had much time to do anything else especially your 12 on ended up being more like a 16 hour shift we would show up 2 hours early for our shift and in the morning couldn’t leave till the helicopters where launched and day shift had breakfast so basically I would miss super and breakfast and the only meal we would eat was mid rats. But if I could do it again at my age I’d do it in a heartbeat we would leave 28 individuals and come back to the squadron a family and where closer than close. Even today we are still close and I’ve been out almost 23 years.
karaoke poker ice cream golf? in the war room naval is just not invited
Joining in 2023 i got my 100 questions aka my background check complete just waiting for the next step, My rate will be master at arms or firefighter
Can I ask where you got the video?
! was sleep deprived my entire time at sea. MM DDG-13 74-78.
Lord Jesus Christ bless you USA always, my daughter is Philippine Navy, Lord Jesus Christ help the Philippines***
So you want to kill innocents and get God to bless that? Btw Jesus is not God. He NEVER claimed to be.
Do you get to pick what ship type you're on? For example since I want to be on a destroyer will I get to choose that?
You get to request to be on a destroyer but whether you are on a destroyer or not is up to the Navy in the end. I asked to be on a carrier and to go to Japan now I’m on a destroyer in San Diego
I was an EW from 1985 - 1989. When I was at the end of my A school, they posted the list of orders corresponding to the number of people in my class. We got to choose from among the selection based on class ranking. I was first so chose the battleship USS Missouri. I'm not sure if other schools did it the same way or if that's how it's done now though.
@@tonyend2001 yeah it is definitely different now from how you did it all those years ago
I hope i score enough on the asvab to become a Hospital Corpsman Dental Assistant, also, does anyone know if the single sailor barracks have kitchens
Depending on where you're stationed is different. I was in San Diego, the barracks I was in were 4 people to a common area, split into 2 different actual bedrooms. 2 people to a shower, but 4 people to a common area for the living room, kitchen, refrigerator, washer & dryer.
A corpsman? I heard they rank up slowly. But that’s your choice
@@Dom_The_Otaku I've been thinking about becoming a seabee instead of corpman what do you think
My coworker 6 years as a corpsman still E3, if you want corpsman you gonna rank up super slowly.
How are you able to do schooling on the boat? Is internet accessible or is the program prepared and ready by the navy to do offline? Would love to be able to dive into education oike that
They can fly professors on board
Where dem aliens at tho?
That’s Air Force
Wifi? I remember using the prepaidd $20 cards to call home. Payphone phone calls. New NAVY IS BETTTER.
When did you serve?
I just want to workout all the time
I hated the Navy. The only job i liked was Mess Cranking (Food Service Attendant) for the E-6 and below galley.
i want to join navy but i speak french and i live in usa .
This makes me feel a little bit better. I’m a little nervous since I’ll be reporting to my first ship tomorrow. I graduated from A school.
Oh boy bout to ship to basic in a month any advice? Thx
@@youtubeviewer2381 Just do what you’re told. Don’t break any rules. Try your best to pass any assessments or tests. They’re not hard or anything really. Bootcamp is 10 weeks long. You take a lot of classes about life, SAPR, and you’ll take some finance classes.
@@youtubeviewer2381 Don’t overthink!!!! Bootcamp is really easy. I had fun in there to be honest. They’ll walk you through everything in bootcamp. That’s what the RDCs are there for, they’re there to teach and help people. They don’t always yell but I guess it depends on the RDC.
@@drewpeacock3798 thanks man
I'm writing a novel with a huge navy ship. I have some questions about said type of ship and other things and actions involved (within the plot), if anyone's interested in discussing.
I wanna join just my parents don’t want me to.
From one Isaiah to another, you need to live your own life out from underneath some else's shadow and expectations. If they truly love you & want you to succeed they will support your choice in due time. Contact your local recruiter. Best wishes
You have smart parents lol
