The Walking Dead What About the Navy? and Nukes? 

First off: Thank you for your service. Second: I agree. If the US main was lost to a Zombie take over, the Military wouldn't just disappear from the face of the earth. But from a average civilians point of view, the Military would just disappear. I guess in The Walking Dead, the Navy, and what remains of the US Army, and Air Force. Are planning on returning to the Main land. Third: I never read the book, or watched the show. But I am sure at some point, the Military will return. (If the book's writer, or the Show's writers have half the knowledge you displayed here.)

This is just a theory, calm down. Also that you for your service.

I have to disagree, considering in this world, zombies are not such a part of the culture like it is in RL. So not knowing what's happening, people getting sick, old people dying, and turning.

You are correct mate..its a very bad joke! I can assure you that they would've never even gotten CLOSE enough to REAL soldiers to do that, much less without being spotted, and as armed unknowns, they would've been treated as highly-likely-hostile anyway..and held at gunpoint, ready to be dropped at the first sign of refusing to even halt & ID, much less disarm..and no dumb backwoods hillbilly attempt at 'friendliness' would've saved them either, because.. ANY attempt to encircle, or surround, is always a hostile act..ALWAYS! If you think civ police are trained to own & take charge of a situation, then don't even get me started on how much you don't know about what soldiers are trained to do.. Especially when they are tasked with clearing out & securing specific objectives or holding ground. Soldiers excell at living rough, having high standards of discipline & fieldcraft, camouflage & hunting down enemy & sign, finding threats FIRST, and dealing with them DIRECTLY..they are not cops, dont waste time on prisoners, (except perhaps in the very short term for op-intel, but there are sure as hell no lawers or american 'miranda rights' there! ) No.. That entire scene was just an absurd fantasy..even a civ cop, in peacetime, isn't that dumb or unobservant..and would be demanding they be disarmed before allowing them close to chat..and even they would still be highly suspicious.. If you believe that real soldiers then, in a wartime/martial law/disaster setting woundn't be always extremely suspicious, and even far more likely to use instant lethal force, and trained ready, willing & able to do exactly that..( or even just out of heightened personal survival instincts!) I'm an ex Australian army infantry guy..and if this silly scenario ever happened to anyone trained here..they'd get zero sympathy from me..they damn well deserved to die! Any serious soldier, from any country, knows this: "Death is nature's way of telling you, in no uncertain terms, that your fieldcraft sucks.." (or that the other guy's, even if only on that day, at that moment..was still just a fine, knife's edge, of either skill or luck, better than yours was.. So.. Semper Vigilans, Semper Paratus, Semper Fidelis.. Enough said..

Bj Lewis yeah! Tell ‘em. Something I find frustrating in general is how the military is portrayed in the media. They are not incompetent. Especially modern Western militaries like the US or Australia.

@@kaibeargaming244 You are not alone there mate!

@Eva Adamska Emphasis on the "ex" One of many silly things i did as a much younger man..old news now. Why do you ask?

@Eva Adamska No, I'm actually quite typical of an Aussie soldier..always been a fairly quiet & humble man..you picked up on that well, especially from just a few words, of a man you've never met.. "Every time you speak..you put your mind on parade" We Aussies are mostly "quiet professionals" and we don't serve for "public glory" We are well known for a bit of larrikin-ism, and jesting..but when it comes to soldiering, we are in the worlds top most tiers..and we quietly train many of the worlds military units, Doctors, Nurses etc. It was purely for purposes of providing my credibility, in my comment's explanation & opinion, that i even mentioned my prior service.. And i most certainly would NOT have, had i still been in the service, lest it attract unwanted attention to me or my family..or jeopardise any aspect of security or non-disclosure requirements. I stay well away from those who like to crow too loudly, especially in public, about their service. I just wanted to inject a little minor "reality check" into a comments section..something i enjoy doing on occasions..my own service did not involve any operational deployments, and i have no great personal exploits or triumphs to laud, even if it wouldn't clash with some security classification to discuss them. There are right times & places for soldiers wanting recognition of their efforts, among others who also know & understand.. But the internet will never be one of them. The Stolen Valour aspect is also a rising concern..It has always been there, but is far more prevalent now. But in truth, any recruit at 1RTB, Kapooka (thats our Army's boot camp here, IET for infantry is at Singleton) would know, and be able to recognise that the silliness of the scenes, that i commented on, in "the walking dead" are the sort of stupidity that only someone who has absolutely no idea, of even the most basics of soldiering, would actually believe.. It makes military people seem highly incompetent, just to add another days episode onto a soap opera on TV. And, when i said it was a silly thing, i meant it amicably, i was proud to serve.. I got to stand on the shoulders of giants, for a time..it is those that came before us, that gave their all, who deserve all the public recognition..thats what they get honoured for. The whole ANZAC tradition is based entirely around a very deep.. "lest we forget" mindset. Not some twisted "worship us more" mentality..that is the domain of politicians..not a healthy or humble attitude to have in anyone, anywhere..it is a far more common trait in "wanna-be" or failed military or police types attitudes..than any real Soldier, Sailor, or Airman would likely possess..we know, without brash words or false bravado, why we serve. It sounds to me as though your thoughts on vets, have been formed by only ever hearing from the hoards of far too loud "couch commandos" and other wanna-be's screeching on the internet, like a noisy flock of Cockatoos! They talk crap..if they ever discussed anything serious at all, it would likely breach some kind of security or, at the very least, one of several signed "non-disclosure" style of understandings, as we all do on entry into the forces.. And they would soon be getting found, arrested & charged. Period. Hence the very occasional little reality checks..you were quick to pick up the subtle sound of a real guy, from all the noisy cockatoos.. And I'm not even a Veteran.. just someone who did a little military service as a young bloke..and wanted to point out in that chat, that any competent military unit, (hell, even a new recruit or police officer), wouldn't have allowed that, much less fallen for it.. Real Veterans are a whole next step up again.. Hope this helps your overall opinion of servicemen & veterans a little, Eva..it seems we are a little under-represented, or perhaps its more a cultural difference..you haven't mentioned a specific country..just an on-line US TV show comment, either way.. Have yourself a great day, where ever you are, and a warm G'day from 🇦🇺 Cheers! 🍻

To me, Guam would be a better base of operation than Hawaii. It has ship repair facilities, parts for naval vessels, weapons storage, and preposition ships located there. Plus it has a lot less area and population to clear.

Soyboy Productions BANZAI

Pearl Harbor would be important here. I read a Highschool of the Dead fanfiction where the US 7th fleet based in Japan retreats to Pearl Harbor as it was unaffected with the outbreak. Of course Guam would be strategic being closer to US allies like Japan, Australia, and the Philippines plus having the nuclear submarines and B-52, B-1, and B-2 bombers

Dave Craft nope

world war z the book covered that issue. It seems that the virus is 100% fatal to all life, so flys might be attracted to the zombies but they couldn't eat or leave maggots to feed off them.

Glenn was killed about a year to a year and a half after the rise of the walkers. I did a little google searching, it takes about 6 to 10 years, depending on soil conditions for a human body to be stripped to a skeleton. I would sudjest that in conditions that lack macro scavenging, (no bears birds wolves coyotes) eating on a walker, due to fear of humans still being engrained in them. You would only be having scavenging happen on a small macro level, say flys having adapted to laying eggs on a moving dead body after a dozen or 3 dozen generation's passed. Along with micro organic decomposition. This being said i think most walkers that have been showen by twd to the date of Glens death have been excessively decomposed. After the googling i did and my real life experiences in dealing with road kill deer... I do believe it wouldnt be untell year 8 or 9 before most of the walkers had been stripped to Skelton

To be fair Britain probably has a higher soldier-civilian ratio than the US

@Jules Vallez Each person would need less than 2 pallets and an MRE pallet is 50"x40" so it's manageable. A pallet has 576 MREs (12 per case, 48 cases per pallet)

Fifi that's also common knowledge. Just like how Nuke ships today can stay out at sea for 25+years (so long as they restock food) without actually having to worry about ROH. Military info is so well guarded here in the states lol

@Jules Vallez You can get by on one MRE a day.

I guess the rouge zombie boats would be more of a threat if the survivors cleared an island....and one was able to run aground in the night or something....then the Z's get out or wash ashore...Thanks for watching!

They shouldnt sink it because then the zombies will just float in the water and be harder to find they'll need to board and make sure all are dead and they can't just avoid it since the ship could end up anywhere and spark an outbreak but ultimately it would be the ship captains word on how they do ti

One thing to consider is that when the outbreak first happened it happens rapidly and I am sure every was panic striken. They were not able to react quick enough as things were progressing. Just my take on it.

VSR Clonetroop 5 even the weakest army in the world can defend their country from a zombie apocalypse. I want to say it was lack of information but in fear the military knew what's up. They may of just ran and let the population fall

In TWD universe the concept of zombies doesn’t exist. That’s why they don’t understand how to kill them and get overrun...

​@@TealJosh No sorry you are incorrect. I am a US Navy veteran and I broke it down in the above post started by Fifi. It might come as a surprise to a civilian but I would dare say that the US Military's, as with any military, weakness comes from our supply chain. Look at history and all of the great battles and wars that have been fought in this world. The supply chain is always one of the first tactical targets hit. You break a military's supply chain and you have essentially broken the military. There are definitely contingencies in place for stuff like this, much of which I am not aware of I am sure, but in an apocalyptic scenario such as this one, no military would be fully prepared to handle it.

Assuming you have the rods on hand you could encourage fishing as both a recreational activity and maybe offer bonuses if you collect a certain number of fish to feed others with.

Why not just cannibalized? :u

oh and about how much food does a carrier carry? No idea about modern day, but this vid of HMS Eagle being replenished at sea in 1966 will give you an idea ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-OOkxBKmxKfc.html. This happens once a week. From the video in one week the crew consumes 12 tons of potatoes, 24,000 eggs, 100 gallons of ice cream, 125 gallons of rum, 4 tons of bread, 7 tons of meat, and 40,000 cans of beer. HMS Eagle had a crew about half the size of a Nimitz class CVN.

Thanks for watching!

ivan boston but what your not understanding about this series is that they are doing the worst possibly scenario. Meaning governments did nothing to prepare thinking it was containable and not needing to warn people both civilians and officials (we see evidence in this from ftwd when madison says that the authorities would tell us and that they were going to contain it). the whole series is set up for the apocalypse to just appear out of nowhere and sniff out humanity. In the book world war z it’s a worst case scenario but humans still win. They governments of the world knew well before the great panic and acted accordingly many countries did what real world countries would do so your right about that but you have to understand that the whole part of the walking dead is that the walker pandemic literally snuck up on the population and ended civilization basically overnight while max brooks using a more real world model didn’t even max brooks is very off from what would actually happen

We saw in TWD and FTWD that enough of the US military infrastructure was still in place to firebomb the major cities of the United States. Atlanta and Los Angeles were shown being firebombed and San Diego was mentioned by refugees off the Pacific coast as being hit. I also believe they showed a burnt out San Diego when our heroes crossed the border back into the US in season 3 of FTWD. The logical choice to launch such an aerial attack on southern California would be the Navy launching strikes from carriers, The aircraft hitting LA are shown attacking from the sea. That means the military seeing wildfire go global and overwhelm local/State Law Enforcement and the National Guard and giving the order for the Navy to put itself to sea. You also have a full Marine Division and several SEAL Teams in the greater San Diego area that could have been airlifted to the Channel Islands. (The SEALs actually use one as a training center) The Los Angeles Sheriff's Department has a station on Catalina and they (along with the LAPD) have some airlift capability and boats to reach the islands. The Coast Guard also could steam out there. Catalina has an airstrip that could handle military transports bringing in what's left of the California National Guard. Point is, there should have been enough military capability to secure the islands and sweep them for walkers while leaving plenty of troops to patrol the beaches for washed up walkers. Those islands would be a perfect staging area and allow the military to set up refugee camps for those folks on the water. The Coast Guard, Navy and Marine/National Guard aircraft could have patrolled the coastal waters for pirates. The rest of the military would have secured ports in San Diego and Long Beach and Los Angeles and dug in behind barbed wire with heavy weapons, tanks,artillery and armored vehicles backed by airpower off Carriers and from the channel islands. If they had enough time to set up the firebombing, they should have had enough time to move food stores from their bases to the islands or even set up a massive perimeter around Camp Pendleton with the sea as an escape route. The base could continue shipping food and supplies out to the islands and be a launching point for operations to retake So Cal.

The Channel Islands have two small military bases on San Clemente and San Nicolas Islands that could be fortified. It's not a great choice because of the possibility of food and water shortages, as well as small medical clinic for medical supplies.

haha maybe so! Thanks for watching!

Sure but you have to think of matance and if the nuke will go off again do to matance.

Overrun

What if a walker acadenle presed the nuk button

Bunkers are heavily fortified with steel and concrete. They are completely secured. Missiles aren't going to launch if maintenance isn't done. It takes two AF officers to turn the switch to fire a Nuke. So a walker bumping into a button isn't going to do anything.

@@davidcraft4636 Very interesting. I saw a 60 minutes segment on the personnel in the bunker a long time ago. They had "old style" landline phones and communications equipment. Because of that, I wonder if they'd be the exact kind of people who had the ability to communicate with the outside world?

You'd need 4 farm ships per combat unit I think just to have the volume of produce

A. Yes, you could and probably should make some garden ships. B. You guys are forgetting the obvious; fishing ships/boats; lots of the bigger ones have processing facilities onboard. Everybody's gonna be eating a lot of fish.

In one of the Crossed comics, US Navy remnants did just that, but that's a whole different story since Crossed is was different from walkers in TWD, aside from possessing cannibalism

Something I’ve always wondered is: how would the zombies be able to get into an Abrams, if no one inside was already infected. You could literally just wait them out (until they get bored and leave) or just go full speed (which, if I remember correctly, is around 35-40 mph) and leave them in the dust.

@Don Frenzel it's been years since it got abandoned perhaps there are less amount of the Walkers right now just don't know it.

Awesome insight! Thanks! - So they attach the cargo somehow to the wire for transfer to the other ship? I have watched a video of them doing this with a hose (?fuel) but not cargo.

@@TWDExplained Yeah. It’s a 10-30 minute process where basically we shoot line over to the Aux Ship, they tie off their lines, and we pull it over to our ship by hand, then by winch. Once we get all necessary lines in hand, we connect the large wire (The Span Wire) to our Sliding Padeye (basically a device with a hook that moves up and down so the cargo can slide down the line. Think a Zip Line.) That’s basically all there is to getting connected. After that, it’s as simple as getting cargo secured to the actual hook device (I can’t remember the name, but if you see anything on a RAS, it’s that Yellow thing). Fuel is the one you’ve seen with the Hoses. Nimitz Class Carriers can take on about 1.5 Million Gallons of Jet Fuel or more. I think the most we’ve taken in a single day was 3.4 Million Gallons of JP-5 Another interesting fact is that Nimitz Class Carriers used to be able to SEND fuel like Auxiliary Ships, but currently, only CVN-76 has its SENDING Fuel station active. So if a Smaller ship needs fuel while at Sea, we can hook up and refuel them!

FYI, mate.. You don't melt snow, you get nothing for your effort, and what you do get, largely evaporates, by the time you've boiled it well for health reasons..

I bet the president is alive. The Secret Service are probably the best bodyguards in the world. At the first sign of trouble, the president would be rushed to a bunker with enough supplies to last a while and strong enough to withstand a nuke. I bet the president is in the Cheyenne Mountain Complex in the Rockies in Colorado. Google that place. It is the best place to be during any apocalypse.

Thanks for watching!

Jonathan Lee they don’t keep fishing supplies on the boat besides strings and hooks on the lifeboats etc and yes the water is unlimited as long as the ship has a filter on board

But how would they refuel they would need to go to land for more fuel or not they would just be drifting in the ocean until eventually they crash onto some random piece of land since they wouldn't be able to control the ship since there is no fuel

@@DG-oc7ks didn't you watch the video? There are ships that uses nuclear as a power meaning they can stay on the water for a good 20-50 years. Only problem is, is they would have to repair the ship and make sure things don't break

@@98kickinit grenade fishing. Spot a school of fish. Throw hand grenades. Fish float to surface.

Fish with what?. No nets. No way to pull them. No bait if your pole fishing. Really? Have you ever tried fishing in the middle of the Ocean.

Wendall Rollins and water, they run out of purification tablets. get sick by sea water, running out of medicine, then they die, then we have zombies. zombies bite, another one, and it spreads

+Ryan “Acer220013” O. Navy ships have desalination plants on board.

So right 😂😂😂😂

Can you fish for a entire Crew? You'll need whales to feed them all.

i dont think that every soldier would do that

Tanks also have pivot steer. Crunch, crunch, crunch is the sound. I got grunts in my sprockets going round and round.

The long, dead frozen one's would stay dead since they died before the reanimation virus took hold. The one's that just died would probably be frozen in place and stay that way until a thaw.

@@bentstrider there is usually a thaw in late spring in the 8k meter mountains. But summer brings a ton of snow. With less human activity, it might help the planet cool. But there are nuclear power stations that would melt down. So I don't know.

April Richards Inb4: Dead Snow

@@aceofspadesguy4913 bloody hell, just saw this! What is Dead Snow? There is a Norwegian N@zi Zombie movie but I can't remember the name. Still looking for the original (Norwegian) Night Watch.

Good answer. A comment like yours is what I’ve been looking for. A well-educated, well-informed, logical comment from somebody with real knowledge of this topic.

Thanks for watching!

Well thought out post!

Yep! It was a good series. I had not watched it yet when I made this video.

@@TWDExplained on a boat your surrounded by EDIBLE fish so you don't have to go the store for food . You can collect rain water to drink and take a bath . Your only reason for going to shore would be for medicine & luxury items ,which you could learn to produce on the ship . Anchor the ship in the ocean and only move it to avoid hurricanes / storms to minimize wear & tear on the ship . Make one trip to the shore in order to Bring some soil & seeds on board to plant crops & fruit trees especially orange trees on the ship . Maybe bring some cattle / goats on board for milk for babies , but not necessarily sense they would be luxury food items . As long as the ship didn't sink it would be like a movable island . Learn how to produce needed medical equipment and medicine on the ship .

Thanks Pyro Toad and Thanks for watching!

TheWalking DeadExplained no problem

Yeah,i just did some search and it is said that only about 350k survivors still alive in Twd universe,like how the fuck that happened?
