- KRIS 6 News reporter Jane Caffrey and photographer Mike Salazar got a taste of life underway, with a 24-hour visit to USS Harry S. Truman, where crews are now training for deployment off the coast of Florida.
From 2007-2012 this ship was my home. Insane how time flies. I remember my very first day laying eyes on her as clear as I remember my last day. Hell of an adventure.
Man, a big Airborne Salute to you for having been in the Navy, and having lived in/on a Carrier for all those years. Army infantry airborne here, and respecting you all the way!
I took her on maiden deployment and then another tour for 07-08 deployment. Great adventures!
yes,yes.. HELL is a GREAT way to describe it.
@@USNMMCret What dept???? I'm a plankowner
@@telesniper2 I was in Eng/A-Division. And was in the O2N2 plant. Yourself?
I only just found this clip this morning, but being a Navy vet from 50 years ago, it was still a great walk down memory lane. Thank you, Jane and Mike Salazar, for sharing this with all of us out here in America. God bless.
I served on USS Carl Vinson from 84 to 88. Thank you for your service brother
I too have been out of the navy over 50 years! Made cruises on USS America and the USS Hancock!
If only she knew what being stationed on a carrier was really like..
@Masster Gunnz: REALLY?
THAT'S GOOD. IT'S NATURAL AND HEALTHY.
BUT WHAT'S NOT GOOD, IS WHEN IT'S "NON-CONSENSUAL".
AND THIS IS WHAT I FIND "TERRIFYING".
"REALLY, ALL WE CARE ABOUT IS PERFORMANCE"...
SO I HAVE HEARD. AND THAT'S "TERRIFYING"...
My first ship was the USS MIDWAY (CV41) out of Yokosuka, Japan. 1st Division Deck on the focsle.
I did 3 years of my naval career on a bird farm. It wasn't too bad. Better than being on an amphib.
It is about not eating regular meals because Airdales are in line all time because Flight ops are not running when chow line is. For reactor dept we had to work 15+ hrs a day at all hours. At least on my ship as we where short 0n personnel in rector dept and CO hated us for some reason, I think he had hard time in Power School and transferred his hate to the Nukes. He made us wear freaking Dungarees instead of coveralls in the Rector Plants. 120F tmp wearing those stupid 1900 style crap was stupid.
She's not stupid she knows she's getting very special treatment
They're eating off plates in what looks like the CPO mess or wardroom. Try the old 6-dent steel trays on a Essex-class mess deck and get back to us!
(AE2 USS Oriskany CVA34 WestPac 1966-69)
You know they are getting it first class all the way! Just like the reporters I ran across in the Army.
Yeah, we had steel trays in the Army Corps of Engineers as well; it wasn't _that_ bad though...
I served aboard a WWll carrier, USS Shangri-la CV-38 during the Viet Nam war.
MED CRUISE ON THE SHANGRI-LA BACK IN 1959 OR 60. WAS IN VF-13. SHIP WAS A CVA THEN .
Yea it was then. I worked on the FD as a tilly for the A 4's steering them onto the cats.
Little Blitz LOT OF GOOD MEMORIES, FOR SURE. THANKS FOR YOUR SERVICE !!!!!
Same to you Sir. Can U imagine being on a carrier today? U Could put the Shang on the angle deck.
Little Blitz U GOT THAT RIGHT, THE CARRIERS THEY HAVE NOW ARE MONSTERS. VF-13 HAD F4D SKYRAYS, WE WERE LOCATED AT NAS CECIL FIELD, JAX. FL.
1:31 lets try the E-6 and below galley next time.
all the food I got was excellent and sometimes our Capt ate with us, he wanted to sample the food that was given to the crew.
Hanqiang Wang when I was on a carrier every one above E6 had better food ! That was chiefs mess the warrant offices to Lt Commander then sr mess up from there!
John Smith have you served aboard ship ?
John Smith well I did two west pac cruises one on USS America (around the world cruise ) and my last On the USS Hancock! With 5,000 plus sailors E5 and below got what the other messes didn’t pluck up first! I see it is way better now with the CVN’s and the culinary rate vs just cooks we had back then!
I ate in the first class mess and the food was usually good. Head of the line privileges in t he mess decks, was nice. Breakfast was usually my favoritie, unless they had pizza or surf and turf.
God bless these folks. Thanks for your service and for keeping my kids safe.
Thanks to all the good folks serving in our military. 👍🇺🇸
Thanks! I know as an Army Airborne Infantry veteran I poke fun at the Navy, it is all in good fun. I respect them and am am glad they are around to keep us safe. We are / were all in the same mission to protect America.
Back in the 70s my stepfather was stationed on the USS Mitscher DDG-35. He said to me the crew always enjoyed family day or when dignitaries were on board because that is when they were given the best food.
Had to laugh... when I was at college living in a dorm the single day we were offered a strip steak was "Parent's Day." LOL
Nothing has changed. We liked it when we were visited by senators or the president. The captain would serve us ice cream and we had steaks and Turkey and ham carving stations.
Every time I get recommended a navy video, they're always eating and sitting down lmfao
Navy life is about 90 percent eating 5 percent sleeping and 5 percent sleeping with other Sailors.
@@rc59191 AAAAACKK!
I'm a mother who is worried but so proud that my son is currently serving on this ship. This is a difficult time seeing all with Russia attacking Ukraine. GOD BLESS you all, please come back soon. And I love you son. Thank you all for the hard work ya do.
It's not a job is an adventure (anybody remember this quote) lol.....From the late 80s.anybody?
HAZE GAY & UNDERWAY!!!!!!
NO
Oh yeah, I definitely remember that selling quote. The only problem was that that referred mostly to foreign ports of call which I doubt any carrier would tie up to. Now with semi-hostle ports, if you make a port of liberty I'm not so sure I'd be getting off.
Yep...Steven Segal said in in the movie (UNDER SEIGE)
Steven Segal 'mockingly' snapped at a younger Navy Seaman who was seriously 'hesitant' about facing a group of *"heavily armed hostiles",* who had taken the battleship *USS Missouri* and were in the process of
stealing her arsenal of *Nuclear Weapons.*
Sorry for the long-winded explanation. Anyway, the 'line', *"It's Not Just A Job, It's An Adventure!" Is from a US Navy Recruiting Commercial that was running around the same time the movie, *"Under Siege"* was airing in theaters.
Once again, I apologize for *"running off at the fingers".*
I was bless to have a family day on Truman, loved it, we seen jets landing and fueling up, walk all over the ship. We saw how they operated the ship, it was Awesome. God bless you all and thanks for serving our country. Give 'em hell. Love being on the water watching the dolphins 😎🎉🎊
Thank you for visiting our ship Jane. ABE2 PlankOwner CVN-75
VF-211 POWER ! My Father served with VF-211 on Ranger Vietnam Deployments. God Bless the US NAVY!
My father was on CV2 Lexington when she went down at the Coral Sea. And was transferred to CV6 Enterprise as soon as the destroyer that fished him out of the water returned to Pearl for the Midway campaign. And served on Enterprise until joining Halsey and Nimitz on the Missouri on the cruise into Tokyo harbor for the surrender.
A war we lost and should never have fought
@@jrjohnryanjr much easier to hop on that wagon now. Times Change,people who were thought as enemies become allies in the most unlikely of circumstances.
@@john_smithchiropractor3931 perhaps we should have realized in the 50s that Vietnams traditional enemy would always be China
Who do you fight with? Your neighbors unless you are the USA
@@jrjohnryanjr Our military didn't lose the war; they had the cat in the bag...it was politicians that lost the war.
God bless our women and men on our aircraft carriers and may we project power thrust
women don't belong on ships.
Jeff Spehar how come they chose to join?
@@KappaJxsh The Military has great opportunities for Women. FYI
@@LiPo5000 I meant how can they join, I wanted to know can u pick
@@KappaJxsh I don't know the current options. My experience, woman were not able to join in any of the Branches. If I understand correctly, your asking how a woman can join up for one of the branches. There should be a local recruiting office around you, or somewhat close by. If you can't find one, let me know what city your located in, and I will make a few calls for you. Let me know if i can help, Dennis
I was stationed on that ship from its shipyard days until 2002! Hey yall..... Air Dept V3 yellow shirt
4:06
"request permission to come ashore"
"Permission granted"
"Yeah agreed"
😂😂😂
Thanks to the Captain and crew who stop
all other important duties to host those going on a tiger cruise. More meals served, more accommodations prepared for the guests, etc. It must be like a huge family coming to visit someone at their home for a few days and all usual events have to be changed.
The Navy and those who serve the guests are very gracious to share their life aboard their
ship.
BIG thanks and graditude to Navy personnel.
By the way it was noticed that those crew members aboard the Harry S Truman that were interviewed gave a positive response about their ship.
God Bless every sailor, soldier, and airman enlisted and officer!! Thank you all for your service! Team America!
Dienna was my XO on the Ike I'm sure he's a great Captain. I served under 3 commands and him and now Admiral Hitchcock under Admiral Menazer (SGC) were head and shoulders above the rest.
Was on the USS Independence and never had a FOD walk on the hanger deck. Didn't have the jet taking off down there.
@mirage 445 so many small errors in this piece
You have your info wrong Hoss unless they have changed ( like having Women onboard and Aircraft Carrier ).
We participated in FOD Walk Downs in the Hangar Bay with continuity
( 1973 - 1976 ). Hi School Graduate 1972
C. Barkwell - USS Coral - Sea ( CVA - 43) Box 30 - V3 Division
FPO San Francisco , CA. 96601

Shipfitter Graduate Apprentice 7/25/1977 - 9/30/1997 until Democratic Policies Closed us for Good. ( 1 year Severance Pay only , Afterwards )
Licensed by the State of California & Department of the Navy to Repair/Build U.S. Naval Warships. Long Beach was responsible for Battleships USS New Jersey & USS Missouri ( Back to Back ).
Worked from Can't to Can't , couldn't see when you got up , couldn't see when you got off ( 4 years Straight )..American Politicians thought it was "Cute" to Close Us. We had every Trades Apprenticeships Programs under the Sun.
Was on the INDY AND America off Vietnam and
when you did your fod walk on the hanger deck
and there were parts all over under the planes,
did you pick them up? How about all the drip
pans and carts of bombs? Overboard also. Never did see them start up a F4 on the hanger
deck.
Nice story, bet you had a lot of fun doing it too, just a really cool experience. Did three cruises on the USS Intrepid CVS11, two Med cruises and one N Atlantic. Aircraft carrier life isn't bad and the places you get to go to and see that you likely never would have otherwise are sights and memories of a lifetime. Don't believe this nonsense about lousy food, food on a carrier is pretty good and there's plenty of it. Proud to have served...was a pleasure really.
I never knew there was such a thing as non "detrimental" damage
My grandson is on the USS Harry Truman. We are so very proud of him!
Think how great it would be if the skills, discipline and character of these people was available to millions of people across the country. Good training, organisation is transformative. The military's knowledge of training, management, logistics, etc. would be a real asset to many people.
I don't think that could happen. Too many people cannot handle the pressure of the development of the skills, discipline and character that the military requires. Too many snowflakes who get "hurt" because someone in charge "has mean eyes" and hurts their tiny feelings. Remember all kids getting trophies for "participating"? That didn't teach a hoot about the hard truth of life in general and getting hard and getting with the program that the military needs.
I served 20 years in the Navy onboard Aircraft Carriers as an Aviation Ordnanceman,,, would not replace my time for nothing!!!! Yesss,,, i did missssss alot of my times with my two children surely,,, but we all had to Adapt,,,, you had no other way!!!! Retired as a Chief E-7 and sure do miss the commrodity and freindships that last Forever!!!!
I served 2004 - 2007 now the young sailors are taking over makes me feel old.
For a really unique experience have her onboard a DDG for a day. Tin Can Sailor 1969-1973 DD878
Thank you for your service. I served on a FF a DD and a DDG along with several other ships
Did she really say, "Permission to come ashore"? I think she meant "go ashore". Whoever was writing her lines messed up because you "come aboard" but you "go ashore".
4:07 “as I learned from my shipmate” clearly she didn’t learn from her “shipmate”
The only thing more impressive than flight ops on the boat is night flight ops on the boat. Thanks to all now serving, those who have, and those who will in the future. FLY NAVY!!!
My dad was stationed on an aicraft carrier most of his naval career (not sure which one), he's retired Navy AMS/CPO.. I myself, retired US Army.. lol
When I was in the navy The Benny Hill Show was the favorite show on CCTV also home made soap operas where liked aswell. Guys would use mopheads as wigs for portraying female characters. The crew got involved in those soaps. They where a very funny show. Also, we had the plan of the day don on CCTV.
Cute..
Wonderful place 'protecting the homeland.'
While the homeland falls apart at home.
Correction: You’re a firefighter first.
God Bless America 🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲✨🙏🙏🙏🙏✨
3:16 my head hurt trying to figure out why the plane was landing backwards. Then a closer look at the float coat and VIP was spelled backwards. Your editor flipped the image.
What are you talking about? There is nothing at the timestamp you indicated that shows any aircraft landing backwards.
@@jeffburnham6611 look at 3:18, the float coat 2nd from right, VIP is backwards, doesn’t mean the plane was landing tail first, just that the image is flipped
Just found this video, my son was on the Truman from 2000-2006, then onto China Lake Naval Weapons Testing base until 2010. He’s still there but works for the private contractor. All he tells me is, IYAOYAS.
Well she wasn't lying when she said "a few years ago some of the sailors didn't even have a driver's license. Nearly half are 21 yrs old or younger." I was one of them back in the late 1980s-early 1990s. I got my drivers license at 19 yrs old while in the Navy. Since I was in a squadron based out of Jacksonville Fla. We were attached to the USS Eisenhower. I needed my driver's license to work at AIMD on the base driving tow tractors
People don't get "sea legs" while onboard carriers. Destroyers and cruisers, yes. But not carriers.
@@danielesposito9705 Haahahahahaha... Twenty-one years in the Navy. Two DDGs and two WestPacs each (dude, THIS is where sea legs are made). USS ENTERPRISE (Google Operation Praying Mantis) while assigned to DESRON NINE, USS CARL VINSON 18 months later. During work-ups we went up to Alaska for several weeks and yes, I did see water over the flight deck, and a bunch of bird farmers were "impressed". But never did we have to strap ourselves into our racks. Not once did we have to hold our food and drink with one hand while we ate with the other hand. I did feel sorry for the cruiser, DDGs and FFGs along with us. They played submarine a lot and by God, that water was COLD. (By the way, one night, while doubling the tie-down chains to the aircraft on the flight deck, we did lose two enlisted airmen.)
18,000 meals a day and 5000 people...someone is having brunch and late night snacks.
jorgensenmj Breakfast, lunch, dinner and midnight rations (midrats). Tradtional midrats are usually sliders (cheeseburgers).
Or what ever is left over blended together. I saw some interesting combinations for midrats..lol
john Magill ohhh.... I remember those....
Do you think they're all working a 9-5 day? Try three shifts 24 hours a day.
@@kornami8678 A Marine Sgt. years ago thought the Air Force worked 9-5, was obnoxious in the mess hall, got marched out by his Sgt. Major, who came back and apologized to the mess officer for his behavior at Charleston AFB.
For those who may not have heard it quite correctly, what the crew is doing in the morning is FOD walkdown (not "fog") -- Fuel Or Debris. Just a helpful note from an old Navy hand...
Edit: Dang, that CO looks awful young to be a Captain!! 8-/
"All hands are invited topside for fresh air, sunshine,and a FOD walk down currently in progress!"
Glad I joined the air force. After a hard days work, go to nearest bar and have a cold one. Can't do that on a ship.
I don't believe the Navy allows any drinks and/or beer onboard.
@@LiPo5000 You'd be surprised.. after so many days on ship, I think it's two months, they ration 2 beers for each soul
Harry S Truman had no "middle name"...just "S" Truman himself said there should be no "period" after the S because it was not a abbreviation. His middle name was S
"The Truman Show" That's so obvious and yet so genius. It got a laugh out of me
They must have enjoyed their short time aboard the aircraft carrier and seeing what the personnel does to protect the country.
I Remember CV-63! So, Everything as seen Yokosuka.
I miss chow hall food =(
1:29 Galley Ma'am. Not Messhall. 🤗
Awesome Nimitz class 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
She looks like they fed her quite well
Pretty chunky for someone in front of a camera all day and in her prime. Future looks bleak for her.
Sam Radowick She looks amazing
@@samradowick8050 Okay, virgin.
Hey, it's an incel!
I didn't think anyone liked skeletal-looking women anymore.
Man I really miss this.
Obviously an officers galley
After your DD214 you get to participate in the time honored prestigious tradition of attending 'Operation First AA Meeting'
They should shut down that on board media program..
That's the most ridiculous bunch of BS I've ever heard of, and there's no place for it on a US Naval Vessel.
Amazing just amazing
1 US aircraft carrier carries more firepower and range than half the world's National military forces.
A torpedo or missile and its a 5000 person coffin ...thats what war is.
I miss serving on a bird farm. Did 2 employments and loved, and learned alot. Then finished my career with a seabee battalion.
totally awsome! keep it up!
it was home only twice 2 6-7 month deployments
That's a far cry from the one that I was on .
Navy always had good food, but nothing could beat a can of c-ration fordhook beans with scrambled eggs and topped with chopped onions with a couple of beers.
Sounds good!
What do US Air Force pilots think of Naval pilots flying on and off a carrier ?
willard schoeffling - wishing they could be Naval Aviators too .... 😉 🇺🇸
@@USNVA11 you're not wrong... I've been preparing to enlist as a pilot in the air force, and watching navy pilots in action sometimes made me wanna join the navy too
FireTide - I was just poking fun. Which ever branch of service you choose to pursue, I’m sure you will be in the company of very competent professionals. Good luck with your training and your career ! 😃
USNVA11 thanks!
FireTide sorry to break it to ya but you need a bachelors degree to be a pilot in the navy.
I notice the navy seldom mentions the thr 6 hours on,6 hours off, 6hours on 6hours off for monthdcst a time
Why did I know it could only be "The Truman Show"? :)
1:36 Bravo VFA-11. I want to ask her how many bench press she does every day.
It's a galley not a mess hall. Mess halls are for grunts.
no one cares dude
If you're going to call it, call it right.
Kyle Smith aboard ship galley vs land it’s a mess hall!
A galley is the kitchen, mess deck is the correct term on deck but we called it the chow hall
It's one thing to visit a Navy ship for a short stay and it's a whole different world living and working on it for years on end. This reporter didn't get the true Navy experience, but that's okay as that's reserved for the people that can handle it.
The hassle of having a civilian onboard the the amount of time it would require for them develop a non idealized idea of what it’s like to like and work on a carrier ISNT worth it. Imagine being a low rating or a mid level petty officer and having to herd around a soft shirt all day long, doing you own duties while at the same time keeping this tourist from accidentally killing themself or someone else would be a major head ache
@@MrSheckstr The ironic thing with the comment that I left here four months ago is that my daughter is now stationed on the Harry Truman as of about a month ago. It's a completely different lifestyle than what she is used to at home or at her A school that she just came from and I have to give her pep talks almost every time I talk to her. You can throw your personal space or privacy out the window living onboard a Navy ship. I managed to deal with it decades ago when I was in the Navy and she is going to have to find her own way to deal with it also. I wasn't advocating that a civilian live and shadow Navy personnel, but just making a general observation that visiting a Navy ship for a day as a civilian is vastly different than actually being in the Navy.
2:10 Junior Enlisted in KHAKI'S???? WTF! And that Captain looks awfully young....
Sumthin here doesn’t add up🤔🤔
NSU??
I was an AE in a P-3 squadron. No sea duty for me.
Sailors are tough!
WHY NO INTERNET ACCESS
Security reasons.
@@LiPo5000 THAT MAKE SENCE

Hey where is your captain obviously rent and Stimpy cartoons shows
It's NOT the "Harry S. Truman"!! The correct spelling of his name is "Harry S Truman"!! Even the Navy got it wrong!! (There is NO period after the S in Harry S Truman's name because it is NOT an abbreviation!!)
It must have cost billions to change urinals to all toilets for the ladies now that's a morale booster for any dame
Sure miss your reporting since you moved onto other opportunities.
and the purpose of a fod walkdown in the hangar bay is ....?
Discipline and cleanup. FOD is dangerous
Great vid!
Go NAVY!!!!!!
Lol should have eaten on mess decks with enlisted if they wanted to see the navy
I was thinking the same thing, lol..Bring back memories though.
this is very scare
Why don't we have such sexy repoters on our TV stations.

Ads is fine.
But by forcing to watch for a while, to million viewer, how many data has been sucked?
We pay for that data, and ads easily force to suck those very intens!!!
John West indeed, i finally install it.
I heard they want to decommision the Harry S. Truman, due to budget cuts, very sad.
Heard president over ruled that and ordered Truman updated instead.
Budget cuts shut down and removed RTC Orlando years ago, my old Boot Camp (summer of '83.)
Lloyd Philbrick with the astronomical military budget I can’t see them mothballing a newer ship !
where do you dump the sewage ?
We have special tanks that’s is able to store, purify, and be reuse. Then if it still comes out bad it cycled again. But ships are allowed to discharge overboard but it must be within standards and distances away from lands to do so.
Also we do have to follow guidelines of the environmental protection agency other wise the fines would be really hefty and people can be losing jobs and possible sent to brig/jail for it.
