Don't ever look down on those cooks, they work work REALLY hard, and they make your life alot better.
Culinary specialists. They go through training that is more challenging. A sub is the worst to train for. Very tight storage and coking areas and no time. I don't get claustrophobia like you do.
I mean, let's be honest, anyone who treats a service worker or anyone that prepares and serves meals for you like trash is probably not a very good person
they're the one I'd look up 2 - cant live without them
Militaries throughtout human history would not exist with them. A good meal at the end of the day is so important especially during war time
@@stephengoldberg334 what do you mean by no time? Have you seen just how slow these cooks are? They would be fired from any restaurant if they were to work in one.
I served 29 years in the Navy on 7 different ships, aircraft carriers and amphibious assault ships. I don't think I could handle being on a submarine even for a day. To all you submariners, I salute you all.
USN submariner here, SSBN 616, thanks for your service.
Did sub, ships, and shore as a NAVY Cook. Morale on subs is FOOD! Cooks and submariners must qualify to even be on a sub. these cooks suck.
loved the open space of a carrier - plenty of hiding places too
@@retircs1can you be specific? The one thing I caught was the guy cutting onions was using a pretty dull knife. What else were they doing stupidly?
Qué bien comen en el submarino del fin del 🌎
As a British civilian, I spent 2 days aboard a US Navy Fleet Oiler doing some contract safety work. I can absolutely state that the food served aboard USN ships is nothing short of excellent. I take my hat off to these guys and girls in the galley. Myself and my colleague ate with the crew, and were treated like VIP's while aboard, something I will never forget.
I was artillery in the Marine Corps, a very demanding MOS. I would NEVER survive a deployment on a submarine. Nothing but respect to these professionals.
WHAT?! Say again!. BOOM!
Lies again? Grab Food USD SGD
It takes very special people to be a crew member on a submarine -- very special people . God Bless Them All !!!!
Hay que tener mucho autocontrol y nervios de acero. Es de admirar. Eso sí.
Thank you. When I rode the boats back in the early 70's, it was all volunteer. I have heard that it is no longer voluntary. Maybe one of my shipmates can give me the straight poop on this. Personally, I would not want anyone on board who had not volunteered. By the way, after leaving my boat one of our cooks went to the White House when Jimmy Carter was President. So that tells you a little about the quality of our food while on patrol. I did 8 patrols out of the Loch.
Always respected the very hard work of Cooks in the Military. Up very early EVERY day to prepare a LOT of food for a LOT of people! Salute.
You got that right 👍🏻😃!! Besides, if you don’t like the chow on a sub where else you gonna go to eat, right? 🤷🏻♂️ I’ll bet it’s delicious 😋 though!! 😁
I don’t know how submariners can cope being stuck in a metal tube for weeks on end. You all have my admiration.
What I love about videos like this is that it reminds us that no matter how advanced our technology gets, we are still dependent on the basics. The Navy simply would not function without these talented chefs!
Talent? Please, they can't even cook.
@@PeterPeli So what you're saying is that a submarine full of sailors would function just fine with no one preparing their food?
Technologies? what are you talking about? The single most important thing in any military op is the logistics. Not the tech, the armaments, troop count, or how skillful the leaders / officers are. There is a saying in China, before the soldiers were sent, the ration has to arrive first. A concerned leader will make sure the logistics are in order first. Without food, there is no strength in your troopers. That is why you often hear severing the enemy logistics is a huge important tactic.
@@praystation You literally just made the same point I did.
It is food dude nobody would be alive without some kind of food so uhhh yeah duhh
One of my old friends was a Bubblehead on the Sea Dragon he was a 3rd class Cookie. I used to call him when I was on watch when I was up on Kodiak. Usually when he was doing Mid Rats. That was 43 years ago, how time flies, Davy Jones got him about 5 years ago cancer. We partied a lot after we got out. Semper Paratus!!!
I think the cooks have one of the most interesting tasks that require a special type of personality. A very strong one. Your performing a completely normal job that everyone on earth does daily under the most insane circumstances.
The war will be over by the time that guy chops an onion
hsahshshshsh
@@user-ky7tp6nl2p probably no a cook. Every new guy regardless of rate spends a month in the galley cleaning and doing prep work.
@@AAblade7 aka: KP
I love the little murals that add a sense of space and the outdoors
It takes all of us to do the things that keep us free. Thank you to all who do your part. And I appreciate what you do.
One of the few videos depicting snippets of modern US submarine daily life that uses correct terminology, footage and descriptions. A lot of KZhead vids are way off…good work. - Retired Submarine Officer
A Submariner has got to be different than a normal person. I would go nuts after a few days
@@DSAK55 We just make sure you're already nuts before you report! ;)
thank you for your service USS Nevada blue crew member MM 3 here 1986-1987 It was a life changing experience for me. Much respect for all submariners and the cooks rock.
24 year fast boat sailor.
То что вы едите, это съедобно вообще?
Whatever these guys earn, it should be more. Massive respect to anyone who served on subs.
They do get a much higher sea duty pay than surface sailors.
The atmosphere is so nice that it's hard to believe that it's a cafeteria inside a submarine, and the food options are very satisfying. For most submarine crew members, the only thing they enjoy is delicious food, so the role of kitchen staff in providing delicious food is extremely important. Pray for the long term for the crew of a U.S. Navy submarine. From a Japanese friend. 🇯🇵🇺🇸
What rush! I don’t see a rush on this video, nor did I see one when I rode 6 patrols on a boomer. The only time I ever saw a rush (so to speak) was when we were coming off watch for Mid-rats. Especially if our CS was making the chili. He was from Texas.
they had just gotten out of port. 2 weeks after you underway all of the fresh produce and dairy is gone. After that everything is canned, UHT, and frozen.
From an army infantry dog, I dont how the hell you guys do this for the lengths of time you do. I know human beings are incredibly adaptable to many conditions but being down in the water for long stretches? Efff that man, I've got land-legs. Even the folks out on carriers and other ships, no thank you, you guys kick ass.
You are 100% correct I was briefly on the USS Nevada in the mid 1980's during sea trails for the new boat. It was a life changing experience for me. Much respect for all who served land sea and air. I did much better on land but I would not trade my time on the boat for anything. The cooks rocked too.
One thing you learn in the military, real quick is, be nice to the cooks and the supply people. They take good care of you!
You got that right 👍🏻😃!! I was smart enough to know who the hand that fed me was… 😁
You should be nice to cooks and food service workers in the civilian world too. When I was in high school, I knew guys who would spit in your food or rub your hamburger bun on the inside rim of a toilet bowl if you gave them attitude. Don't bite the hand that feeds you.
The lunch ladies of the sea. Mad props to those guys, I can't imagine the work they do to keep everyone happy and safe.
These are the dudes who keep the bad guys away while the rest of us sleep..thank you guys
They keep no one away and it's only a waste of money
@@JesusKing436The reason there's no one to keep away is BECAUSE they are there..lol. You need to check your logic sir. You better believe if they weren't there, it would be open season on us. There's alot of countries out there that wish they weren't there, trust me.
And who says the US are the good guys? More than half the world think is the contrary.
@@JesusKing436 Your Taliban husband still mistreating you?
Really really appreciate each person in every branch of our military! Thank yall for doing what you do and keeping us safe, I pray for each of your safety and well being!
When hiring, if you have a choice, definitely interview a candidate that served on a fast attack submarine. These are very high level people.
Especially now regardless of your faith
Ordu( US army) dünyanın ve sizin başınıza gelen kötülükleri simgeleyen en önemli figürlerden biri, biliyor musun?
Cooks are very important.
Being a cook is a huge deal keeps morale up .
You bet it does!! I ALWAYS thanked and complimented the cooks 👍🏻😃. They always made sure I got FULL helpings 😋😁!!
It’s all great, good food, good men, good country, these men are the backbone of a serious strike that can never happen.
I was on a Navy Frigate for 3 1/2 years, the food was excellent and while underway they serve 4 meals a day. The Sticky Buns for Midrats were a nightly treat. It's one of the perks you get for being stuck on a ship for extended times. BZ to all the Cooks out there!
Prarie class? What #... 10, 17?

RESPECT FOR ALL US MILITARY PERSONNEL LIVING AND DECEASED! MAY GOD BLESS YOU ALL!
Dude needs to sharpen that knife.
Thank you for an insight to all the hard work our soldiers and sailors do for us.
Three hots and cot and mid rats too. Best food in the World Class Operation of the Navy.
These food specialists are morale personnel. Good food keeps everyone aboatd hsppy. Bravo Zulu all.
Most important cooks on the planet.
And likely the best
Thank you to every Soldier onboard that and all submarines. WOW, amazing how they live and work under the water. Very impressive! God Bless them all, and every member of our Military!!! I could not even walk onto/into a submarine...terrifying.
Sailors
@@MrForbes92 Seamen
Thanks for sharing, and God bless our troops. Happy Veterans Day
1977, I was in Radioman "A" school and the sub recruiters came calling. They asked if we wanted to be on a "sub or on a sub target". I chose the target. The more videos or stories about subs I see or hear about, the more I'm convinced I made the right decision.
The galley is a hugely important area of responsibility on a ship. And it looks like they are doing a really great job on this submarine. Very very important area for morale and maintaining health and working energy. Impressive.
Food safety and handling is very important. In this video I didn't see one person in the galley wearing gloves. I wouldn't want our military personnel exposed like that to bare hands handling food . It should be a required precaution.
@@nancygodsey8312 Gloves are stupid and a waste of valuable space.
Thank you to all the cooks in US Military!🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Lmfao 😂😂😂😂😂😂 GTFO they nuts bro
Honestly, I could think of few things worse than being on a sub in the Navy underwater for weeks or months at a time. The claustrophobia would be awful
You could be in a foxhole, in the freezing cold, covered in blood and vomit. But at least you'll have the stars over your head, if it ain't raining that is.
@@newdefsysYep taking that everyday over a tub underwater!!!
@@newdefsys I still prefer being an armchair General, comfy at home with my Doritos.
Cooks keep the ship moving.... well done 👍
They got really good at this. I’m impressed.😊
It looks nice and modern but it cannot be easy living like that. Thanks for your service.
I salute you all. Thanks for the service.
Muito interessante o conteúdo do vídeo. Nunca tinha visto cozinheiros trabalhando num submarino.
Surprised the servers were not wearing gloves while handling the food. The one guy just grabbing the hamburger buns with his bare hands. Not sanitary at all.
The only thing I envy about you naval guys is the standard of food you get served. You can keep everything else. Love from the Infantry.
US Navy: "The bridge has direct visual access to the outside environment." Normal people: "It's got a window"
thank you for your service
Submariners are the greatest. Surface Navy is awesome, but under the surface involves a type of controlled insanity.
One of our relatives was a 2nd leutenant assigned to a submarine, he just graduated from navy academi two years before sad accident happened. The submarine went into eternal patrol. Salute to those submariners onboard. They are heroes
Wow. So cramped! It’s nice in the mess hall they have the little murals on the walls that show wide open, beautiful places. I’m sure it gets claustrophobic
Achei interessante aqueles quadros com paisagens onde tem as mesas e bancos para fazer as refeições. Estão dentro do oceano vendo montanhas....
He burned the hell out of his chicken in the beginning
Please, refer to him as the “Culinary specialist”
I would go mad in a submarine. Kudos to those who can handle this duty.
shoutout to the CS’s man they be hookin it up sometimes on deployments
Good food is a huge part of moral. This is an extremely important MOS. My dad half starved in the Solomon Islands in WW2, and he felt the effects for themainde of hos life. Bravo to the Culinary Specialists.
Um, English? Everybody in the Marines was starving. Only when the army came did they get fed.
As a kid I would listen to my grandfather, and uncles tell stories about WW11, Vietnam, Korea...they all agreed that the chow was less than desirable, and they had to eat things that would " turn your stomach " I'm glad to see times have changed, and our fighting forces eat well. 🇺🇸
I appreciate all of you Sailors putting your lives on the the line to protect our Nation. Stay Strong and enjoy the chow.
Much respect to our Navy & submariners. May God bless them for their service
I got a member of my family who is cook into some french nuclear submariner, he told me that food is very good, they do lot of efforts for crew members and for superior officers, they got their own chef with different food, with service in white gloves, etc....
Absolutely amazing the size of these modern subs, the kind of room they have is insane.
Just think this is a fast attack submarine....wait until you see the guided missile or nuclear missiles subs
Can someone tell me why halfway thru this documentary about submarine kitchens we switch to Osprey and f-35 aircraft?
Lot of these channels on this topic do it. Pretty annoying
due to lack of footage on Food
Look at it as they gave you a bonus footage of another part of the service. PJ
Because this video creator wants all his videos to be at least 15 min. long, which generate more revenue. His older shorter videos don't generate as much.
Only 2 1/2 minutes of cooking.
Very good video, training must be intense with all the hand movements
An army travels on its stomach. As do submariners. All of them that work in the galley in any capacity are as vital to the mission as just about any personnel. I hope these men and women get the respect that they deserve.
Despite the long patrols without any possibility of getting fresh food supplied, meals on a submarine are better than on surface warships. I know, I've had both.
By far the most important and powerful people on a sub. Want your food to taste nice captain?? Even if they served my fav food my claustrophobia would still keep off those things
I would lose my mind, if I was on a submarine. God bless them all.💪🏻👏❤️🇺🇸 They must have nerves of steel.🦾
I served on several land duty stations and only one ship, a rinky-dink boat attached to the sub fleet based in Charleston. I have never understood all of the disparaging remarks made about Navy chow. No matter where I was stationed, the food was ALWAYS great. Serious kudos to Navy cooks. 👍👏 I can't help but think about how difficult it was to arrange to shoot this video. It can't possibly have been shot for the sole purpose of being posted on KZhead.
My son did that for 5 yrs, 4 yrs fast attack and 1 on a spec ops sub. He’s a Sr. Chief now. He wanted to learn how to cook.
Son of a Vet, 2 tours of Vietnam, S.Korea Conflict, B1 support, SAC Trained Killer, That was my Dad and if he was here I'm POSITIVE he would be saying that "HE is proud of YOU and your SON."
To all those saying that they have an issue about them not wearing gloves have probably never been on a submarine to know that unlike our surface counterparts. Gloves are a luxury that we can't always afford.
😂😂😂😂
This, its called washing your hands, never had food born illnesses on my boat. Surface cooks ain’t even cooks, they just heat up premade food.
@@Leangreen69 exactly lol I think the only time I've seen gloves was during an inspection
YOU SUBMARINERS ARE NUTS SO GLAD YOU ARE THX FOR YOUR SERVICE.SEMPER FI!!
82 to 88 VS-41 and VS-33 two west pacs..I worked on subs at the shipyard in Bremerton Wa and you had to be a special bread to do this..
I was never on a submarine but a former active duty Marine. I couldn't imagine cooking that much food.
just imagine where all the shit goes after the toilets filled up
Why is everyone freaking out about "NO GLOVES!"? People touch raw food pretty much every damn day without gloves, its no big deal
Gloves are a hazard asa they promote cross contamination. In this area, back of the house staff do not wear gloves in the kitchen unless handling raw ground beef or raw chicken. Use then toss immediately. Otherwize, wash your hands when necessary.
you can't chop food with rubber gloves on dipshit - you wash your hands often and after handling raw food
My salute to the cook!
Back in my day we were called mess management specialists 😜
Until 2004
These CS’s have lost their minds. Who handles raw poultry with their bare hands willingly.. and handling RTE foods such as the peppers is a violation of the food code. Chewing gum isn’t permitted when handling food either.
I'm sorry, but gloves are a luxury that we all can't afford.
Was shocked to see a server just grabbing hamburger buns with his bare hands, also the cooking handling the chicken without gloves. Very unsanitary and will get a lot of people very sick.
@@paulready8897 yeah can't always afford them
Enough with the gloves/masks. Life is not brain surgery.
How does a sub handle all the exhaust from the rangehoods? I assume that they don't blow it straight out when submerged.
Fresh vegies and fruit?......must be on the front end of a deployment lol.....
SERÁ QUE ALGUM SUBMARINISTA, DE QUALQUER PAÍS NA SEGUNDA GUERRA MUNDIAL, CONSEGUIRIA IMAGINAR UM SUBMARINO ASSIM? ENTREI NUM SUBMARINO ESTACIONADO NO PORTO EM SÃO FRANCISCO, QUASE MORRI SEM AR, MEU DEUS KKKKK
Agora vc imagina os submarinos alemãs da 1º e 2ª guerra mundial. Tem um vídeo de um brasileiro que faz um tour por esses submarinos na Alemanha, é incrível como pode vc sobreviver a aquelas coisas.
Best food in the NAvy is always found on a submarine.
日本の潜水艦では調理中も音を出さないので騒々しくてちょっと驚きました。 さすが原子力潜水艦は豪快ですね。
I'm sure there are noise dampening systems in effect which nullify sounds of cooking from outside the hill.
I remember when I was in, the early 90's, but we used gloves when handling food.
Why use gloves? It's not like chefs in restaurants wear gloves other than for specific tasks, why would a sub be different
This is early in the cruise when they still have fresh produce…. Then they have to work their magic with frozen, canned or dry! Amazing job you guys do! They will never be compensated enough for all their work and the time lost with loved ones and the beautiful earth and sky!
When i was on FBM's we had 6 hour watches, meals were the 3 regular one plus midrats.
"Culinary specialists are also trained in food safety"....yet, NOBODY preparing or serving food is wearing gloves!!
They’re worried about spreading germs and none of the food preparers are wearing gloves
No place to store extra trash…?
Only fast food workers wear gloves.
Gloves really don't help, just gives the person eating the food a warm fuzzy feeling thinking their food is germ free.
Food safety and sanitation should be #1 no matter where you are handling or cooking food.
Stop being paranoid. These navy boys are clean as can be 😂
You didn't make the tiny effort to say what sub that is which I'm sure was mentioned by the source of the video you "borrowed," but from a freeze frame of a cap in the opening, it is the USS Colorado (SSN-788), a Virginia-class attack sub.
They don’t use plastic food gloves to prepare the meals? Amazing what these cooks and all who are involved in the kitchen procedures do. God Bless our Military.
so thats why they let females on subs now
200 push ups for not using gloves while cooking!!
Interesting report. Best regards and have a nice sunday from Germany.
love when the dude said "unless a lip reader is watching us they cant understand what were saying. So shoot me" when the whole convo had audio xDDDDD. shit had me dyin. great vid!
Pretty crazy none of the food service workers wear gloves and they bring up the fact that stomach bugs are a concern and they follow strict food safety guidelines
Gloves don’t make the difference to me. They get dirty too…Ive seen food service folks use gloves to pick up raw meat and then make a salad using the same gloves. Yes I complained to mgr…
This is an extremely closed environment. The crew is tested closely and they are highly trained and paid very well for Navy standards. Part of the reason for no gives is where do you Throw them away and where do you store the replacements. It’s cheaper and better to practice hand washing and pre screening.
It’s called proper hand washing and cleanliness
Also storing and deposing gloves maybe a issue in a submarine going on tours for months. Changing gloves everytime it rips , changing food station etc will leave a large amount of trash . Cant be dump in the ocean like they can with bio degradable material. Navy logistic have to calculate stuff coming onboard for the sake of available space and consider liquid hand soap for washing for food prep is better alternative for food sanitation. I also saw no gloves for the kitchen so i had to think about it to come to this conclusion.
I also been in commercial restraurant where professional and trained food prep staff dont were gloves because they handle knives where it because slippery and more likely to cut yourself. Places where with high turn overs like fast food use gloved staff have they dont see it as a lifetime career and not follow health guidelines which may follow a lawsuit to the franchise. Glove maybe worn if they have to continue to work with an open cut
Is "NO GLOVES" allowed while dealing with raw food on a submarine by the cooks???
I wear 2 pair of gloves, sometimes three. Can never be too safe.
Most food regulations say either gloves or clean hands. Gloves are overrated as most cooks don't change them often enough to make it worthwhile anyway.
The thing about subs vs surface is when they’re underway, you never see the sun…..
I lived AZ for 32 years... No Sun , that sounds perfect
❤ 🎉 My Husband served on 2 we fell in line new london so proud of all that swim with THE. Real Dolphins.
Random question but what do they do with the exhaust from the grills and ovens? Like the mechanics behind getting rid of that greasy smoky air
C'est comme ça que l'on repère les sous marins américains il y a une odeur de burger 😂
After watching this I'm thoroughly impressed. Submarines n Fire have always been my greatest fears I enlisted in army at 16 Shipp in 11th grade. My cousin many years ago a cook in navy. I would love an experience now as older on a sub
Digital combat uniforms. Nice.
Out of all the service branches....the Navy has the coolest stuff/weaponry.
True hero's plain and simple these are the best if the best, and cooks on top of that....oooooh rah.
Knowing the unpredictability of movement in a submarine, the mere a t of cutting an onion would need to be performed VERY differently then on land. Hats off to these guys for the amazing work they perform in such confined and difficult conditions.
I could never live in a submarine!!! My hat is off to y’all 🇺🇸 Thankyou for all that you do! I was wondering why they don’t wear gloves when handling food?
