    ...this whole series of vids is so fun. Love the combination of how smart and approachable the Navy personnel are. Growing up in a Navy town (San Diego) I don't remember being this enthused about them in my younger years; it's nice to look at them now and really appreciate what they do and see qualities in the personalities that appear warm and genuine. And the closing scene sitting on the deck and looking at the ocean is just awesome. Thx

    The Awe Factor continues to expand exponentially! The sweetest parts are the transparency each person shared; getting a glimpse of the everyday life of having a job on a really big ship; the spine-tingling beauty of liquid nature. Luscious camera work Shane.

    Thinking it may be a challenge to top this adventure in the coming months!

    Having the one-on-one conversations give these episodes such added flavor. Nice seeing some of the mentioned sunset pics included too - wow, thanks for sharing those, Kayla! Shane, great angles and capturing the feel like we're there too, feeling and smelling the salty breezes...

    My son is serving on that ship. We were on board the USS Nimitz for the Friends and Family Day Cruise in March 2009. What a ship!
    We have been enjoying your series of videos.
