Inside USS Theodore Roosevelt: 18,000 Meals, Coffin Racks & The "Fresh Food Cliff"

Описание: It is known as "The Big Stick." A 100,000-ton industrial complex floating in the middle of the ocean. Welcome aboard the USS Theodore Roosevelt (CVN-71).

To the world, it is a symbol of power. But to the 5,000 men and women trapped inside, it is a closed ecosystem that runs on caffeine, calories, and endurance. How do you feed a city when the fresh vegetables run out after two weeks? What exactly is a "Hamster," and why is it the ultimate comfort food? And how do you sleep when a 30-ton jet crashes into the roof three feet above your head every 45 seconds?

In this documentary, we look past the fighter jets and down into the mess decks and berthing compartments to reveal the logistics of survival.

In this video, you will discover:

The Fresh Food Cliff: What happens on Day 15 when the salad bar turns into canned beans and UHT milk.

The "Hamster": The greasy, deep-fried chicken patty that fuels the fleet.

The Earthquake Zone: The brutal reality of sleeping directly under the arresting gear.

Mid-Rats Culture: Why midnight is the most social time on the ship for the "Night Check" crew.

The Steel Beach Picnic: The rare moment when the captain shuts down the war for a BBQ on the flight deck.

This is the uncensored reality of life inside Hull Number Seventy-One.
