I was in the Navy for 20 yrs and NEVER did we EVER refer to them as "Chefs". LOL
Speaking as an Australian, the sheer logistics blows my mind. Absolutely brilliant!
My hats off to those Navy cooks; they kept us well-fed during my time in the Navy. Except for mess cranking, they sent us to the grinder!! The POT SHACK in 1990 sucked.
To bad the Navy is not what it use to be
@@GeorgeMoss-t5i Thats what I hear, but then again, nothing seems to be.
Now you have places like Golden Corral to look forward to! Seems like I'm always seeing veterans at that place. Now I why! 😆
❤ 🌹 God bless America 🌹❤ thank you all u.s service personnels 😘❤️❤🌹
Thanks for your comments and suggestions on this post. God bless you too 🙏
I spent the BEST 4yrs of my life on USS Independence CVA-62 from 75-79. Man, all my stories are AWESOME !!! Oh, and ALL the food we had back then... *WAS FRESH* ... we didn't have all this "re-heat" stuff !!!
Congratulations shipmates God bless you always and thanks for your service 👍👍👍👍👍
thankyou for your service. God Bless
@tobyargall8202 Good morning!. God bless you happy Monday 🌄
@tobyargall8202 you are very welcome shipmates aboard uss Carl Vinson 🇺🇸
if you thought carrier food was good you must have grown up eating dog shit
Just got done with dinner watching this, now I am hungry again !
As a EX CULINARY SPECIALIST. 1992 ABOARD THE USS HOIST ARS 40 CREW COMPLEMENT: 108...ALWAYS FELT that its the MOST *CHILL* job to have....besides being a STORE KEEPER/ BARBER OR YEOMEN, OR PERSONAL DEPT. When women weren't allowed to serve on COMBAT SHIPS....SEEING the SCALE of this is very NOSTALGIC.
Absolutely amazing how they provide fast and nutritional meals round the clock for 5000 people!!! Incredible!! Keep up the great work Ladies and Gentleman!!
Thank you for your service ladies and gents...
I got out of the Navy in 1974. I can tell you they had some of the best food in the military or at least I thought it was when I was growing up it was just me and my brother and my dad. We learned how to cook, but when I went in the Navy, the food got a lot better.😂 I think all young men should have to go into the military at least for a year out of high school. You’ll get integrity and learn a lot and it’s a good place to get a education for a job like pipefitter or even the Seals. That boy cooking has a tattoo on his neck. That stuff wasn’t allowed when I went in. They must’ve lightened up a little bit. I’ve been hearing there a little bit you know what 😅
ever been onboard merchat ship?
@@ReynatoSantillan-po8pw no but I heard those destroyers fed better than the carriers
You must’ve been eating on base and not on any ship.
Fuck that the government shouldn't force a job unless there's a national emergency even if there is pros
As someone in the Army, the first time eating at a Navy galley after years of DFAC food was like walking into 5 star buffet.
You can never tell they’re even in a ship. Incredible.
Imagine joining the navy, being assigned to a carrier, and then getting posted at the Starbucks serving coffees.
Navy veteran here, great food, nothing like a night on the town when in port, comimg back to midrats, custom order omelets sunday morning, put on 30 lbs
Kind of crazy they have stores on the ships. Shouldn't all the people get their needs provided without spending their own money?
Man maybe I am the only one that feels this way and it’s ok. But it pisses me off to watch these guys have to pay for anything. They are out there 24/7 protecting our freedom they should be able to get a soda whenever they want or a snack or a Starbucks coffee without having to pay a cent out of their own pocket while on the ship Thank you for all that you do for our country.
What freedom?
It’s not out of their pocket. They get a allowance that they can only use of these kind of services or purchases. This allowance isn’t dollars it’s electric allowance.
Well, they say "Freedom doesn't come free". This is what they mean. But you should be worried about Malaysian and Hong Kong Businessmen making a fortune supplying them. Wasn't one caught in a scandal. Apparently, he was rewarding officers with women too, who complied.
As much as I want to say "The ship's paying for the food", they are still chefs at heart. The food still is on a tab... and someone has to pay.
100% Agreed!! ❤❤❤ Thank you to ALL who serve!!
Army in early eighties, I appreciated the food and found it enjoyable. But it was absolutely mind blowing when you consider the quantity and quality these guys produce every single day.
My x wife was in the Navy and yes I can agree that the Navy feeds its people very well. We had a family "Golden Corral" kinda place on base whre we were living and for $5 (if you weren't enlisted) you got 2 plates of food as high as you could stack it. I won't lie I'd enlist but I'm 36. I just want an honest job in life.
A Starbucks, on an Aircraft Carrier? Outstanding, Shipmates!!!😊😊😊
@@Dockenneson43 awesome service shipmates aboard uss Ronald Reagan 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Rule #1: Don't anger the cook. Rule #2: Refer to Rule #1 !! Be thankful for MIDRATS.
I was in the Navy for 22 years. The cooks on ships are rarely chefs. The chefs work in Admiral's quarters!
🥩🥓🍔🍞🍍🍆🥔🥝🍅🧄🥯🥞🧇🧀🍖🍗🥚🧆🥙🫔🌮🍕🥗🫕🥟🥠🎂🍩🍨🍧🦐🦞🥧🍮🍯🍶🍽🍴🔪I recently retired from the US Navy after a record 33 years of service THE rank of Master Chief Petty Officer, spent a great lifetime serving sailors and Marines on Nimitz class aircraft carriers serving in mess halls of various ships.
I suddenly felt hungry when I saw the delicious food on the aircraft carrier !!!
Just to let you know, this is all for show. My last deployment they didn't even get us real eggs
Awesome video posted congratulations shipmates aboard uss RONALD REAGAN 🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲
The food 99.9% of the time does NOT look like this!
And they don't look fit either. I had never seen a Navy men with a pot belly back in my day. Except for the chef.
Yes, it is one of my oldest.brothers was in a plane carrier. He told me, it was very good.
Was you a sailor on an airplane.carrier. yes or no
u got into the wrong boat
I was on the JFK CV67(1998-2001), our food was pretty darn good! This was the transition period from Mess Specialist(MS) to Culinary Specialist.
Unsung heroes!
God Bless those now and past veterans in USA armed forces 🇺🇸
Which god?
@@or2akthe god of your understanding chump
@rolandgraff414 thanks for your service and God bless you 🙏
@@or2ak Hello
Happy and blessed Sunday. May the Lord send a rain of blessings to you
@@AlbertoGonzalez-sz5qt Hi, Thanks for that. I’m just a pissed off Taxpayer, Gun owner. 💪⚖️🇺🇸 Dad, brothers, almost all my uncles in WW11. 🇺🇸SERVED 🇺🇸 all gone✌️🕊️
❤ U.s navy best of the best ❤🌹
I love the Christmas feast! ❤🎄 I LOVE the Santa Claus going-dow--the-chimney cake!
Thank you for this uplifting video! It makes me happy to see the care and imagination the galley crew takes to feed ships full of brave men and women. They deserve the best, and it looks to me they are served just that! 😊😊😊😊😊❤❤❤❤❤
Chunky sailors today, very different from WWII sailors same food
Hey guys I think you've shown this before... At least I've seen it a couple of times just rebranded.
A Starbucks in an Aircraft Carrier...that´s so american! 🤭
Should be Black Rifle Coffee Company.
Who runs the Starbucks
The ship doctors will take care of their health by conducting regular medical laboratory tests since the foods they eat are rich in bad cholesterols and sweet foods are abundant plus the soda drinks.
Wow. They eat good,and they should. They are warriors
I tell you, cooking is not difficult here. The challenge is planning the supplies, making sure everyone is well fed, enough food for every single one everyday.
If you ask me, the cooking planning and logistics team really is a stressful job
我也在海上用餐兩年，台灣
Keeping the Navy sick from the toxic food.
The pizza looks delicious❤❤❤11:15
My family has a long history in the Navy!!! 🎉 Thanks for making this great video and thanks to all our service members! Hugs ❤ 🤗
Great video , educational , God bless our troops , 🙏🙏🙏
Which god?
2,400 to choose from.
Man, I remember these meals!
This is why I am trying to get FLorida to get the Nimitz before it gets ripped apart and sold off. Just strip vulnerable stuff and leave the rest for turning it into a floating hotel and reunion ship off the coast of FL. Lots of JOBS and INCOME for FLORIDA
Love videos like this and the comments where veterans share their stories
As an ex Austrailian soldier, I remember having a meal in the Sargents mess on the USS Barbor County but in 1987. All I can say is that it was equal too or maybe just a little better from what we were getting in the barracks at my mess at Enoggerra Barracks.
NAVY No1 ❤❤❤❤❤
God bless our troops
food looking good ! thanks to the skillful staff on board.
Not generally known, but Navy chefs are trained by the Army at what was known as Fort Lee, VA.
Sir i have a question?if the jet fighter pilot have a mission they are allowed to bring food ?
Heart and soul of any ship
I really like it when you can find a sense of humanity in a place you never imagine before.
This is old. You should see what some places in the Navy serve now. It is by far the worst food I have ever eaten. My animals eat better than then the food, and the military gets to eat. If only they hold up to standards
Wow!! And that is just one ship!! The US has many more ships with lots of people aboard. So that must me thousands of meals a day.
This is absolutely amazing 💯
Everything looks great 👍
I remember having to push all this cargo up three ladder wells just to get to the mess decks before they could even begin preparation. Good ole' mess cranking duty.
Is this accurate,or they put the best food only for documentary. Its clear that sometimes they have to eat whatever there is available. What I meant is that,do they really eat this good most of the time. Lets say 60% of the time. If that is the case they eat better than most people from third world country or middle class family. If I was an American,I will definitely join navy.
Cholesterol coma.
I LOVE IT!
Leave me alone in my artery hardening fantasy!
God bless the souls of USS Cole. They were hit while in the Galley
God bless the 🇺🇸
❤❤❤❤❤
My ex husband’s father was a Chef for the Officers in the US Navy man I miss him and his cooking
Another really good video thanks
please try to write your own scripts. it feels like chatGPT himself is reading the script. nice video but 0 effort on script, not original at all
It is Persian gulf not Arabian gulf
Arabian gulf is an alternative name
surprising amount of money
MM Delicious
Fabulous food.
Splash a bottle of 🍷 now
I was in the navy for 27 years before i retired serving upwards of 15,000 meals a day to my fellow sailors and Marines.
Now you have places like Golden Corral to look forward to! Seems like I'm always seeing veterans at that place. Now I why! 😆
Is the kitchen going 24 hrs 7 days a week with the different shedules?
Home in port No! last meal is dinner.
Deployed only Midrats = midnight Rations aka lunch and dinner leftovers till 1 or 2 maybe earlier bc the CSs start morning breakfast prep around 5 am.
Chief I am on vacation!
I am now eating Hot Dog with tocino
That's my son's only complaint about being stationed on a carrier. He told me the food is a-- but loves everything else aboard.
I was on the Harry S. Truman back in 2000 and was on the first deployment and I remember on Christmas Day was the best meal that I’ve ever had. I’ve never seen so much seafood in my life and that ice cream socials they have were just fire. God i hated Norfolk with a passion, but the Harry Truman will forever be a memory.
Be nice if they had three restaurant size smoker's one for brisket, one for rib's, and one for chickens corn bread are corn bread muffins and collars greens
When I was in the only cooks who might have been called a chef were the ones who worked in the wardroom or CPO mess. As for the rest of the unwashed masses, E-6 and below, the cooks were called almost every name in the book. And chef was not one of those words. Even being called a cook was stretching it a bit.
i love video cooking
People's in the carrier have different task and purpose like in this world there is moves on other role and they are on the same place but each every works are have director to assign and do their task where there is applicable on its expertise.. Even the wages are also have different amount.. Some it may over to their needs and some others are out of concern and also to those have family are enough depend on the situation of living.
A bunch of rehashed footage. The Thanksgiving clips are older than dust
0:36 big homie from the army hood got everyone covered with meals :P
If you know, you know
It's all fun and game till it comes too clean those hood racks all the way up too the fan that blows the steam and smoke out
tyfs
Back then they use to spit in your food and hand it to you 😂😂
One big chicken for me please !what is the price ?
1:55 is that a marker pen covering a tattoo??
0:17 Does anyone know what they doing? Checking the runaway for objects and damage?
0:39, when did beards become re-authorized? And, many of those sailors look rather hefty. The Navy must've changed the physical fitness standards. Don't want to "fat shame" anyone. I hope they widen the scuttles. A look into the New Woke Navy.
For the best food in the military, you need to serve on a submarine.
Chief Master At Arms Ashley Wilson…hahaha! We know how she got promoted.
AND THEN FOR DINNER SOMETHING LIKE A BURRITO BOWL
Don't Go " people crazy 🤣 on there , and noisy"
this is how you recruit people to join navy... food
try passenger ship. that navy is nothing compared to passengers food
Starbucks on an aircraft carrier??? I wonder how many congress ppl starbucks paid off, I mean, "lobbied" to make that happen...pathetic and embarrassing...I bet SB charges the Navy like 100 dollars per coffee served
how you doing carl
Good
Military comms can make any topic boring. The logistics around this are very interesting but this production crew makes it about as dry as a chicken breast.
Why your spiker sad "arab gulf !!"it ls not arab golf , they had history like usa as 300 yares old not like us 2500 yares!!?
They ladies and gentlemen shouldn’t have to buy anything while one these ships or even on base. They already don’t pay these people enough as it is, such a shame our government is so greedy
As an Army Veteran I can tell you that our food wasn't nearly this good, My brothers served in the Navy and they concur that the food was awesome. However those Air force people are just plain Ole spoiled, They had telephones and there own latrines in their rooms. This was back in the 80's, I can only imagine what they have now.
The Space Cadets in the new command must get out of this world foods ....
