Cool stuff thanks!
Being an airfare, I had never heard the term, “Jack of the Dust” :-) RARELY went below the second deck!
Manny is a beauty,
Hey guys, we recently visited the museum this past weekend, the restoration work has been really wonderful and its good to see Lionfish getting the attention she needs, but we happened to notice the Hiddensee was closed off, and the rotary barrels of her AK-630s missing, is the Hiddensee going to be undergoing preservation work like Lionfish?
Haven't watched you guys in a bit, you've improved a lot.
do you guys use the mess decks and kitchen equipment today?
no part of the deal they have with the navy is to keep that stuff like new...
@@cultureshock5000 no, there's so much of the ship that isn't "like new", as they don't have the funds to open up and maintain the entire ship. They have the funds to have the mess area set up, but that specific area is not in contact.
They don't use the mess area. They use an open area above the mess area, within the superstructure, for any and all cooking.
The current snack bar is the wardroom
the main snack bar is the pantry that's in the wardroom on the battleship soon we will also be opening a new space near the main galley onboard
That IS a lot of meat!!
