And then when these kids leave the Navy and enter the civilian
job market, they have to deal with clueless Human Resources
types during job interviews. Think about an ABH who worked the flight deck for a cruise or two. Or the ADJ who was in the jet engine shop on the carrier. Or the MS who was preparing 4 hot meals a day, 24/7 for 5500 hungry sailors and Marines.
“Did you ever work in a place where you had to meet deadlines?”
“Did you ever have to work in a team environment?”
“Did you ever have to deal with stress in your prior experience?”
“Have your ever handled heavy equipment?”
“Do you know how to react when the unexpected occurs?”
Do you know how to improvise when change is necessary?”

And the kid answers,
“Yes. In my previous job.” (While thinking, “Who is this
stupid douchbag?”)





This shows what it is really like on the flight deck of an aircraft carrier in peace time or war.
The Most Dangerous 4 1/2 Acres in the World
Anyone who has walked on the flight deck of an aircraft carrier, done his job, whether it be on the deck or flying in the aircraft gets goose bumps when they smell JP-5 jet fuel. It brings back memories of just how important team work is.
Warning: At the beginning of the black and white footage, there is a disturbing event where one of the deck hands is sucked into the intake of an A-6 (Intruder) waiting to be launched…T-45 Goshawk cold cat shot…T-2 wave off, flip over and crash upside down a lady student.
This is awesome. The mission of everyone on that carrier is putting ordinance on target. From sick bay to the cooks to the chaplains and then the deck hands themselves. Their professionalism must be on display every day. ; Everyone on the flight deck and on the hangar deck needs to keep their head on a swivel. Some of those bombs the ordinance hands are loading by hand without a hoist are 500 pounders. A video tribute to the young folks who work the Navy's aircraft carrier flight decks, which when operating - regardless of world events - have been appropriately called "the most dangerous 4 1/2 acres of real estate in the world."
Very motivational! These kids are 18-25 year old (average age < 21) who function at an extremely high level of responsibility and performance. They know their jobs and do them!
