I've never seen a more comical way of doing a simple task of docking a ship. Reminds me of how the Three Stooges would do it!
Consider a winch in front pulling the ship with two near or mouth of the dock feeding rope while using lasers to guide it to its final destination. It simply can't be that difficult when you have modern technology at your disposal.
@1LonePuma What an ignorant comment. im sure you are an expert at docking a multibillion dollar. my guess is you have never served in the armed forces because only a fool would say something so juvenile. Why don't you volunteer to give the navy some advice on how to do their job better since you are obvlously far superior in your intelligence.
You put up your post, which is what You tube and the US Navy has ALLOWED YOU to do for this video and giggled for a few seconds after you did. Months later I come across your moronic comments.
The men and women aboard that ship AFFORD YOU THE FREEDOM to be OPENLY moronic and disrespectful. I spent twenty years of my life ensuring YOUR freedom of speech so morons like you have an avenue to utterforth your moronic statements. Dr. Ron
@1LonePuma You were? really? Then I bet you were in the Moron Army because you keep opening your mouth and sounding more and more like one.Hmm, you were in the military before I was, does that mean that you are excused from being a moron?How exactly does WHEN you were in the military give you special priviledge to say stupid things?If you are senile, well... Personally I could, nor does anyone else, care less when you were in the military, you say stupid things. I will bear in mind your senile.
@1LonePuma There is a headline pulling the ship in. Computers cranking out line sounds cool and all but you need humans on the lines to make quick decisions and react quickly when the wind gusts up.
One would think there is a more efficient way of docking this majestic ships, but as is, what a mickey mouse way doing it. Yes, the way it's done, it better go slow.
Nimitz sailor, AVT Corpsman from March 2004- September 2008. I miss the ship like mad sometimes. I can't believe it is coming up on three years since I left her in Coronado and on NASNI.
I was on in 86-90. We were in drydock in Bremerton in 87-88. this is still an awesome process. To see this thing from underneath in the drydock is amazing...
wasn't there a similar series about a ship and the people inside it or is it the same ship but a new series?
