I was in elementary school when we donated whatever we could to bring our ship home. I'm 71 now and still love seeing her. Your video was great, but you really need to see her in person, to see how beautiful she really is. Thanks for doing the video ❤❤❤
I'll watch this during my night shift. Thanks for mixing it up. Love your Orlando parks vlogs, but enjoy seeing this type of vlog, and some "real America" travel vlogs.👍
Outstanding! I visited the USS North Carolina in October 2005 due to my military interchange in USMC Camp Lejeune... I'm going to suscribe right now... grettings from Chile 🇨🇱
Just came across this. If you have a amateur radio license, you can sign up to operate radios from the ship's comm central (Radio 1) from the Official website or from the local Ham radio club's website, the Azalea Coast Amateur Radio Club. Doesn't cost anymore than you regular ship's ticket. It's pretty inspiring to operate a radio on board and there are a lot of Hams out there who are very excited to make a contact with someone on the battleship!
Nice video. Hope you guys got to see the upper decks, the bridge (where they steer the ship,) officer country and sick bay (hospital). Also, best donuts are Brits Doughnuts in Carolina Beach at the boardwalk.
Thank you for sharing this great video on the USS North Carolina Battleship which happens to be my favorite ship. I enjoyed how you captured every important details beginning to end... I felt I was by your side.🤩 Thank You & friend Joey keep the videos coming. 💯👍💖💖💖
My dad was on the North Carolina from her commission in April 1941. I have his battle diary, and grew up with stories about all the engagements they took part in. Dad passed in 1997 and would have turned 100 this year. Yeah, the North Carolina is my favorite ship too 🥰🇺🇸⚓
During the heat of one of those battles in the Pacific, the North Carolina was throwing such a heavy blanket of firepower that another ship radioed in to see if they were on fire. Starting with the North Carolina and South Dakota Classes on up, all of America's battleships had that kind of anti-aircraft umbrella that Japanese aircraft had extreme difficulty with. Not a single American battleship was lost after Pearl Harbor, owing to the upgraded anti-aircraft armaments of the day.
The crazy part is that 2 of the 4 Iowa class battleships can still be pulled out of retirement if needed the other 2 are sadly to far gone to even be considered to used and they’ve already moved all the live rounds from the other 2 ships to the 2 that could be used if needed
Did Joey say Doughy? Great battleship ship vid…..it’s rare to see one like this. They should have allowed yo7 guys to shoot something!…lol. Oh, send me a chocolate doughnut!
My father was the first of the commissioning crew to be married to my mother after the North Carolina was committed this is documented in the ships Tar Heel newspaper
