Kinda like this one.....I like the shot of hitting the golf balls off the stern at sunset....me and the boys used to do that....so the Captain...being at sea is no excuse to not have a good swing....in fact, it should be better when you get back than when you left..if you work at it...

When i was stationed on the USS Enterprise and USS Abraham Lincoln I would always go up and watch the flight deck activities during my off time.
Here is a good video of a jet landing on a carrier.

My uncle was a jet engine mechanic on the Enterprise in 73-74. I'd give my left nut to land on a carrier.
My Dad flew the P-3 during the early 70's for the USN out of moffet.

That's a good video.
In a Admirals cup golf tourny in the Philipines i got a hole in one on a par 3. I won some prize but i was so hammered from drinking beer through all 18 holes i couldn't walk up and shake the admirals hand and get my prize. So my two buddies helped me walk up there and shake his hand and get my prize. He was cool about it. I said i think the sun got the better part of me and he said are you sure it wasn't the beer. Everyone laughed.
Great vids!!!
Did you see how calm the water is? How come there is no lake lice jumping his wake?
Cool vids!
Many thanks and much respect goes out to the guys serving our country!
Absolutely, without a doubt has to be the biggest rush ever!!! Flying in a fighter jet is one of the only goals I set for myself years ago that I have not been able to accomplish.
Awesome videos. Thanks!
Great Videos!! That will give you a woody for days. Wish I could take a ride sometime, but the pilot would not like me barfing in the back seat.:jawdrop: :jawdrop:
I was stationed on the USS Midway 1986-1988. I've been to the Midway museum twice so far. It brings back alot of memories.
