Daily Life of Navy Chef Cooking 1000s of Meals Inside 13 Billion $ Aircraft Carrier

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 !!!

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.

❤ 🌹 God bless America 🌹❤ thank you all u.s service personnels 😘❤️❤🌹

Thank you for your service ladies and gents...

Absolutely amazing how they provide fast and nutritional meals round the clock for 5000 people!!! Incredible!! Keep up the great work Ladies and Gentleman!!

Just got done with dinner watching this, now I am hungry again !

You can never tell they’re even in a ship. Incredible.

I was in the Navy for 20 yrs and NEVER did we EVER refer to them as "Chefs". LOL

❤ U.s navy best of the best ❤🌹

I suddenly felt hungry when I saw the delicious food on the aircraft carrier !!!

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.

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.

Imagine joining the navy, being assigned to a carrier, and then getting posted at the Starbucks serving coffees.

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.

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 😅

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

A Starbucks, on an Aircraft Carrier? Outstanding, Shipmates!!!😊😊😊

Awesome video posted congratulations shipmates aboard uss RONALD REAGAN 🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲🇺🇲

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.
