...wow, just watched this on iTunes - can't remember much about being that young!, re: OSSA's Mason and Espinoza. Great vid and love to hear everyone speak and share on the video; especially the shout-outs to their families - nice!

@Jonnie - Like you I have such a new and improved impression of our sailors and the Navy. So glad you are enjoying these too.

FOLLOW UP: The movie The Final Countdown (1980) features the USS Nimitz. The Director's cut (commentary) has wonderful info about the ship, Naval protocol and the movie; totally worth a listen on a lazy day...
