Received my CPO anchors in 2017. *Second* proudest moment of my life (since my wife might read this).

Like everything left in Detroits care. Its abandoned and ruined.

Excellent video. I wonder what happened to all the equipment in the basement where there was a simulated CIC room (combat information center). I remember going there in this room as a kid in the sea cadet corp.

I have one

In Tokyo antique bookstore, I found first edition of Commodore Perry’s report to Congress. Four volumes. (Listed as three, but fourth book is maps). I bought and have with me. BIG books.

Was on the Coral Sea in the 80s. Most of the meals were good especially the breakfast. There wasn’t a lot of different meals once we got underway but they did a great job for what had.

Wonderful video.

commordore perry saying after the man hugged him that hed let him kiss him if theyd sign the treaty is fucking hilarious lol. I can only imagine the laughs and enjoyment they had during that feast.

CPO ‘GUS’ GUTIERREZ READY TO CHUCK BIBLE. HE CHALLENGE GOD TO PROVE HIMSELF AS REAL WHILE MEN WERE ON LIBERT. HIS SHIP WAS IN JAPAN AFTER BEING SHELLED BY NO. KOREA. NEXT DAY, ALL THE MEN WONDERED WHY HE NEVER USED FOUL LANGUAGE. HE NEVER CUSSED TO HIS DYING DAY. HE BECAME A 3RD ORDER CARMELITE. RIP BRO. ❤

Ah yes. The middle managers of the Navy. They are not the same anymore unfortunately

Pathetic video. Harps on pointless details as a substitute for understanding the least about the topic. Worthy of presentation to ninth or tenth grade history, worthless to adults. Boring as hell. Major down vote.

I wore it 1990- 2020

Very interesting master chief!

Thank you for all this information.. it's helps me out a lot....my dad was on a destroyer WW2 I wish he was still around for me to talk to ......Again Thank You

Great work

Thanks for posting.

USAF vet here. I served on the Dover AFB Honor Guard when your fallen sea mates arrived from the Stark ('87) and Iowa ('88). We assisted the USN Ceremonial Guard in both ceremonies.

Master Chief, love this episode. I collect Naval themed antiques myself and am looking to purchase a 1902 Bluejackets Manual. May I ask how did you go about acquiring yours? What should I expect to pay for one? Where’s the best place to find one? Any information helps, thanks! Hooyah!

Request you do a video on how to wear the Cutlass. The buckle situation is hard enough

My first ship back in 1965 was the USS AMPHION (AR-13) for they had the model 41's mounted in the racks in the ship's armory.

I remember my fist ship back in 1965 the USS AMPHION (AR-13) for they had the Model 41's in racks in their ship's armory along w/ the Gurand M-1's, BAR's and the Thompson's Sub-machineguns. Yep, I am an old salt.

Master chief I served for 24 hrs I member when the Dixie cup was 95 cents

7/14/1853 USA: this is a great decision😊 12/7/1941 USA: well that came back to bite me😐

12/7/1941 USA: well that came back to us😐

He's not that great of a man because he basically threatened Japan to trade with the USA. He showed up uninvited with guns out and forced trade. Tell the correct story. This guy was an asshole and probably provoked Japan.

To maintain my 180 pounds average weight I ate more than anyone else aboard the frigate on which I served. I was really tight with the mess specialists, they even had me on permanent mid-rats when deployed. Nothing like an 8 by 8 fried eggs&bacon with a double order of SOS followed by a bowl of raisin bran and glass of milk with a mug of coffee to start the day. Mess specialists made my day, every day and at every command. I paid it back with interest as a mess cook, fixing the scullery as needed and keeping the CPO Quarters satisfied.

6:33 - I have my Grandfather's handleless Watchstanding Cup. When he went into OCS 2 weeks after Pearl Harbor, he took his cup from the Goat Locker and kept it until he retired a Lt. CMDR. It has a makers stamp on the bottom dated 1940, and is one of my most prized things.

Did the Navy ever use Carr China with a blue chain link pattern in the 20s or 30s?

In the early 70s the enlisted voted the old uniform out and the officer's type uniform in.But this required special lockers because that uniform required it to be hung on hangers.After millions of dollars had been spent on the new lockers they started to complain about the new uniform.Said things like they had been mistaken for milkmen when they went home on leave,etc.Now that they bought the old uniform back since the early 80s they're starting to complain about it again.I just hope the US taxpayer doesnt fall for this crap a second time.

Thanks for your careful historical research on the origins of the funeral salute and debunking all the myths about it. As a former newspaper reporter, I have seen (though tried to avoid circulating) many flimsy “traditions” and too-perfect-to-check anecdotes cited as the origins of various customs or phrases. The topic of the last salute is near to my heart because my father, a retired LCDR and Annapolis grad, passed away 19 months ago. He loved the Navy and its traditions, and would have enjoyed your videos.

The model 1861 cutlass is a thing of beauty. Great video. I especially seeing the earlier cutlasses we made due with when our country was young.

Speaking as someone who served in the Navy, its not an eagle its a crow.

I did reserve drills at Brodhead briefly in 1988.

I enjoy your historicals Master Chief. EW2 iossi

real founding father of Japan Glory USA And Matthew Calbraith Perry

I was Navy enlisted from 73 to 77, and we were allowed to wear Cracker Jacks, and Mrs. Nixon's 1930's gangster suit wasnt popular with the guys. I was lucky as my brother in law had also been an enlisted Navy Radioman earlier, and I got loaned his wool Cracker Jacks, which I wore proudly And returned to him after EOS. And when I left the USS Vancouver, left the business suit on the bunk compartment table for the other guys to grab for use, in distain... Navy now back to Cracker Jacks, all is well.

3:50 Japan was closed to the Western world and to the Russians during that time, *except sometimes for a limited number of Dutch people* allowed to be present only on the artificial island of Dejima, off Nagasaki. The Japanese sought access to Western subject matter experts and Western books on subjects such as gunnery, medicine, sailing, shipbuilding, metallurgy, and navigation, but under highly controlled conditions and exclusively on Japan's terms. From 1603 to 1868, Japanese leaders mostly closed Japan to the outside world largely because they considered Christianity something of a national security threat and a sneaky vehicle for colonialism. There was some overreaction, but over time, there were examples both in Japan and abroad suggesting this viewpoint was not entirely without merit. Sometimes there were civil disturbances in Japan that involved groups of Japanese people who wanted to follow their interpretation of Christianity. During that period in Japan, some foreigners intentionally disseminated false information about other foreigners with whom they had disagreements. They claimed that those affiliated with different groups sought to create problems for Japan. These falsehoods stemmed from disputes and competition among Westerners over their schemes for financial profit, over the different denominations of Christianity, manuevering in Japan in the hope of an advantage for one Western country over another, and so on. The strictness of the ban was not always absolutely the same, and the information above is a simplification.

I have a Korean 1950-51, reversed Buffalo challenge coin. Do you know who minted these coins and how many were minted? My father was a Korean war veteran!! I would appreciate any help, I've been reaching that ends with all my inquiries. Sincerely, Vietnam veteran Normand Goupil

Master Chief, my name is Carl Menger, formerly HM2. I was on active duty 78-82 and then reserves till 92. Your name rings a bell. We're you at NAS Moffett Field in 80-82 by chance?

Well done ✔️

I dont often miss my time in due to being forced out, but seeing many different presentations of our rate's history, and its association with our Devil Dogs, I was filled with nostalgia of my short time as a greenside Doc while watching this.

12:00 this sounds interesting and makes me want to join the service. I love music with a passion.

Im not sure why this came up on my YT feed now, but it was a nice burst of nostalgia remembering my Navy days. I absolutely hated this cover, and thankfully only had to wear it three times in my short Navy career. I wasn't a fan of any of our headwear to be honest, but in dress blues, I would begrudgingly give the Dixie cover some respect. You had to buy a new one every damn inspection though. Edit: Just noticed your rate at the end of the video, Rah fellow devil doc!

Excellent!

My great grandpa was a greenside corpsman in ww2, where he fought in Guadalcanal and I believe Peleliu. If there were any things that my grandma knew of his time in the service, it was these: nobody touches doc, and that doc is a Marine as much as anybody with an EGA

Do you know when the manual stopped referring to ditty boxes? My 1918 edition refers to them on the section of stowing clothes Pg184 and also instructions for washing the deck (remove ditty boxes from the floor). My 1940 edition no longer mentions ditty boxes.

FINALLY...someone answers the question that has puzzled me for years, namely: How in the hell do you wear a hat on the back of your skull without its falling off. Another of life's tiny mysteries revealed! Thank you!

I was in the navy from 1966 to 1972, it was the most chicken shit out fit you could serve in

Yah forgot one... Chief Warrant Officer. Not that I knowed nuttin' about duh U.S.N.
