Un día en la vida de un marinero de acorazado, 1953

1. Man I miss those days ?

2. What about the normal daily maintenance functions? Wouldn't maintenance continue 24/7 regardless of other goings on? After all, the ship never sleeps. Shore based, we had stand-downs for these special days.

3. Could someone please tell those Established Titles jokers to just go away? They're infesting several of my favorite youtubers with their stupid frauds. If you really want a title, just print one out on a nice sheet of paper for free and it will be worth as much as theirs.

4. Hey Ryan what’s the coolest/strangest thing anyone ever found stashed or forgotten on the ship?

5. My wife and I are now Scottish land neighbors of yours, m’Lord. Slainte Mhath!

6. I found it it extremely interesting, I think PODs from all her commissions would be interesting, and maybe do a comparison from WWII to Vietnam and 80's and 90's to see how things changed.

7. This was especially fascinating … thank you.

8. No – Undress blue is not dress blue – it's the Navy blues with tie:
   (I have a pick but can't attach it)

9. 4:55 Breakfestes

10. I do enjoy these short, informative videos, either about the ship, or how is was used. I cannot imagine why there were so many sweeper calls! What is making the deck so 'dirty' to demand this so much? Also, I would LOVE to see that model of the NJ ship that was in the bottom of the video. It looks terrific. I wish you would scan this model for us one time, and tell us all the equipment it has onboard, and what era it represents. I often dreamed about making a battleship model, that floated and had a real propulsion system with remote steering, and where the guns were actual handguns, and it fired real ammo controlled by a remote hand held device!

11. Very interesting to see the difference between the old battleship sailors and my submarine experience. Some things are similar and some are not.

12. When reveille started playing I thought my alarm clock was ringing. I kept pressing the side button wondering what the hell was happening and why I set it at such an odd time then I realised it was part of the video lol

13. This was a very interesting video.

14. What was the food like on these ships in the 50s?

15. This is interesting can we do a day and was shooting guns in desert storm?

16. If the ship is away from port what gets on the deck that needs to be swept up?

17. Very interesting video, thanks Ryan, my main era of interest is WWll, but I am interested in all of BB62s life.

18. Did they only sound reveille to certain parts of the ship? Since there were some rotating shifts, guys would be in the middle of sleeping at 5am, or the guys who get to sleep till 630, so do they just have to ignore it and go back to sleep or what?

19. Definitely an irregular day. It’s nice to see cleaning duty stayed in the plan even in such circumstances.

20. I reported to my ship, USS Gridley CG21 in early 79. I left the Gridley in July 83. I saved the Plain Of The Day for both of my first and last days on board. The common item on both days was that the main course feed to the crew on both days was Chicken Ala King. you got to love memories.

21. Very interesting video.

22. “FLASH BACKS!!!” Well remember all this.

    Being 80’s crew, like to see which POD you have. I may still have one tucked away also.

23. I've always been super interested in food on the ship. How did food change from WW2 to the end of her career? How did food change from day-to-day during the week, or as deployments dragged on? I'd love to see more of that 🙂

24. Highest compliment I can pay a channel:. I saw this topic pop up and thought "meh". Then noticed it was from the fightin' museum New Jersey! "Heck yeah, fire it up!" 😀

25. Every morning when I walked back to the shop after the morning meeting in Maintenance Control I was carrying a passdown log, a full cup of coffee, and a POD. That never failed once. lol
    You know we gotta see a Pacific War POD but even more historic, do you have the very first one?

26. This is A day, but not the typical day in the life of a sailor.

27. POD 2/18/45 and 2/19/45
    ????

28. I did about 2 years of sea time in the late 80's on PhibRons. I had forgotten all about SWEEPERS, MAN YOUR BROOMS. Good memories. (Cause I didn't have to do it)
    USMC Retired 72-92

29. Is there a video about cleaning procedure?

30. I do not know how things are in the surface Navy, but for us airdales the POD was just something that was made because of custom, not so much for an actual need. The meaningful document for us was the flight schedule. The POD was mostly ignored. It certainly was never read to us at morning muster like I would see some blackshoe divisions doing.

31. How about the day the ship was commissioned? A day on the gunnery range would be cool too.

32. What is JERSEYMAN?

33. I love this kind of stuff Ryan! It's brilliant to know how the sailors lived in that era. As you said, only 1 hour to feed ~2,500 sailors and marines. How would the guys on watch be fed? Would the guns be manned during Condition III at all hours? If during the night, you were out of bed, not on watch and not taking a trip to the loo would the sailor be charged?

34. POD during Vietnam bombardment?

35. Yes that was very interesting but I laughed when you said tin can . The New Jersey or 80 Iowa class battleship or aircraft carrier are cruise ships compared to destroyer escorts and fast frigates

36. "Late sleepers" is to allow the mid-watch to get a couple of hours of sleep to make up for missing out from 0000-0400. It is a bull-s*** joke.

37. Fascinating, would be interested in more information & perhaps cooking of USN meals through the ship's career.

38. ty some more occasionally ty

39. HP laptop combined with a DELL mouse = heresy!!

40. Smoking lamps?? Pfft.

41. What is that model you have on your desk? Is that LEGO?

42. Ryan: "Sweepers AGAIN!"

    Me: Duh.

43. Yep,mop guy has good figure 8 rhythm, still mop like that myself. And 2 spins on the head back and forward to shed excess water after wringing out.. I heard of a guy who was a Merchantman in WW2 , and they had a deal where you could sacrifice 2 stripes to transfer into the US Navy – So he went from 4 stripes down to 2.. Whether he regretted it or not is not clear.

44. Ryan, undress blue uniform looks similar to dress blue, but the color of undress blue has no white piping on the collar. His is like a informal dress uniform that you could visit bases where you are docked. This is not a Liberty uniform. You could wear this when you are not in discarded for work details.

45. ?????

46. This is pretty cool knowing my Grandfather was aboard the ship on this day.

47. A pod for Vietnam tour when they were doing operation Hilton

48. Agreed Patrick Boyle Ryan can you film a mock 5 inch dual with crew 14 gettin faux round and head or even just the hands .wouldn’t the synchronicity and rhythm be interesting mabye 40 mm crews running through the motions .
