US Navy, LCAC from LHD-6

[hammerogod]

You guys on the Bonhomme owes us guys who served on the old Bon Homme (CVA-31).

Yes, you owe us the basic Pride of Ship that we showed.

Do you know what a chipping hammer, a wire brush and a can of paint is?

Just the rust I can see in this video makes my skin crawl.

Word to the wise:

If you let the ship down she will let you down.

Otherwise, good sailing mates.

LCAC...the sport car for the Navy

Bonnhomme Richard LHD 6 yea I spent 13 months of my life on that boat! Operation Enduring Freedom! The Navy is the Taxi service for the Marines, while the squids spend their slimy days being beligerent, & scrubbing the bulk heads, & floors. Marines priorty is workingout, studing knowledge, eating, & making sure we get in our racks to take a nap, whenever the squids call out GQ............................­.General Quarters Bitches!

[jpdude999]

Hey! That's my boat! I was the Craftmaster on the the mighty LCAC 32. That was my last deployment before I retired.

[scubasteve98312]

@jpdude999 I am looking to take a job in the LCAC community, could you give me the skinny....been navigating my whole career.....whats it like as a QMC on these puppies?

[Thetrutv]

Did you guys see that fish? 

[fran21ish]

The best Army in the world like it or not...fact.

[mgibbs88]

@fran21ish LCACs are operated by the Navy and carry Marines.

[beasst94]

@fran21ish jarheads arent allowed on these boats

[indoorin]

Are there any battle ready LCAC's?

[Stretedge]

[jlynn1985]

@jeanmarc87 yea like you think you can buy a LCAC from the U.S. Navy even if you could you couldnt afford it do you have any idea how much a it cost to have a LCAC built for the navy.

[JayRitzy]

@jlynn1985 obout 23 mill to 30mil.

[scienceisexy]

hey os 2, when were you stationed there?

[xGeneralShenanigansx]

My dad was one of the naval architect's that worked on the design of the bhr. I was lucky enough to go on a cruise on it from pascagula, ms to pensacola, fl when it was first christened

[mushitushi04]

I was Craftmaster at ACU5. LCAC 48.

[dylkyle2002]

What years were you there...I was a Nav from 92 to 96

[JayRitzy]

@mushitushi04 Ok you being 26 and this wrote about a year ago, i highly dought you were a craftmaster, you might of been in the Navy but a 25 year old craftmaster who can only be a Chief or above. Please.

[tangoseal1]

I was Nav on one at ACU5. Got out bout 2 years ago. Going Army WOCS for Aviation school. Cant wait!

[sdodd09]

I was Tooo!

[Studio151video]

The Bonnie Dick was my first command.... OS 2 Plankowner, I was the one controlling the LCAC's Piloting Navigation.

[nebelwerferXXX]

Its very risky to land the LCAC to enemy shoreline. Its very noisy. An enemy army group will be alerted.

[cchanderson]

??? WTF nebelwerferXXX? If the Marines are going in everyone is gonna know about it trust me! The 200 AIRCRAFT and 500 AAV's might give it away. So don't worry about sound...

[peluks9]

i got out the bhr in may 2006.. that shit was tight... miss it..

[nskbonner]

My hubby's on the BHR right now!!!!!

[CPARIS99]
