WEBVTT

00:08.625 --> 00:11.292
(drum beating)

00:15.170 --> 00:16.360
- How do you do,

00:16.360 --> 00:18.500
I'm Navy Journalist A.P. DiMesticso

00:18.500 --> 00:21.083
and this is More Bow, Less Stern.

00:22.100 --> 00:25.130
We owe today's episode,
and some to follow,

00:25.130 --> 00:29.570
to the miracle of modern, and
in this case, future science.

00:29.570 --> 00:31.650
It seems that a portal has been opened,

00:31.650 --> 00:33.900
one to a time that has not yet been,

00:33.900 --> 00:35.863
and a ship that has not yet been built.

00:36.720 --> 00:40.530
While hard to believe no
doubt, that is indeed the case.

00:40.530 --> 00:45.290
Sailors in the year now get this, 2019,

00:45.290 --> 00:49.090
have happened upon time
travel and paid us a visit.

00:49.090 --> 00:51.410
However, in interest of keeping this

00:51.410 --> 00:54.010
accidental technological advancement

00:54.010 --> 00:55.970
out of the hands of our enemies,

00:55.970 --> 00:58.750
our mutual enemies at that,

00:58.750 --> 01:01.130
it has been agreed that
our travel be limited

01:01.130 --> 01:02.593
to just our two ships,

01:03.480 --> 01:05.580
and that our interactions remain relegated

01:05.580 --> 01:08.150
to the program you're now watching.

01:08.150 --> 01:10.570
So each episode will bring a new traveler,

01:10.570 --> 01:15.350
from the USS Kearsarge LHD
3, 51 years in the future,

01:15.350 --> 01:18.800
to USS Kearsarge CVS-33.

01:18.800 --> 01:23.800
With us today, the sailors
of the year for 2018.

01:24.230 --> 01:27.623
Electronics Technician
Second Class Jenna Murray,

01:28.708 --> 01:29.541
- (indistinct)

01:29.541 --> 01:32.030
- [A.P.] Excuse me, I'm ill-informed,

01:32.030 --> 01:33.220
now who are you?

01:33.220 --> 01:35.700
- Boatswain's Mate 2nd
Class Dominic Mando.

01:35.700 --> 01:37.515
- [A.P.] Dominic Mando,

01:37.515 --> 01:38.865
Boatswain's Mate 2nd Class.

01:40.010 --> 01:42.160
Welcome to 1968.

01:42.160 --> 01:43.118
- [Dominic] Thank you

01:43.118 --> 01:44.884
- [Jenna] Thank you for having us.

01:44.884 --> 01:46.384
- So I understand,

01:47.720 --> 01:50.800
we can't discuss specifics
about the future,

01:50.800 --> 01:54.920
and future events, as
our knowledge of them may

01:54.920 --> 01:57.420
affect their outcome, but
please tell our viewers,

01:58.830 --> 02:00.283
what is the future Navy like?

02:02.820 --> 02:03.920
- From a girl's perspective,

02:03.920 --> 02:05.420
which you're probably not used to

02:05.420 --> 02:08.623
because now they have women on ships,

02:08.623 --> 02:09.456
- [A.P.] I see.

02:09.456 --> 02:11.570
- You know, women get catered to

02:11.570 --> 02:13.760
because they complain a lot,

02:13.760 --> 02:15.530
and you know, everyone babies them

02:15.530 --> 02:18.270
and they can't lift boxes on their own so,

02:18.270 --> 02:20.030
it's really good to
have a lot of men around

02:20.030 --> 02:21.410
to pick up our slack

02:21.410 --> 02:23.510
'cause we just we just
really don't like cut it.

02:23.510 --> 02:24.790
- And am I to understand that

02:24.790 --> 02:26.890
these ships stay afloat
with women onboard?

02:26.890 --> 02:28.250
- [Jenna] Some,

02:28.250 --> 02:31.420
yeah we're still trying
to figure that part out.

02:31.420 --> 02:32.253
- Fascinating.

02:34.335 --> 02:35.431
BM2.

02:35.431 --> 02:38.370
Okay, no you are in 1968,

02:38.370 --> 02:40.700
when it comes to the future
things are different.

02:40.700 --> 02:42.310
Now we get technology babies

02:42.310 --> 02:44.720
which think everything
should be handed to them,

02:44.720 --> 02:46.960
not here when you have to work for it,

02:46.960 --> 02:49.240
but they are expecting
you to give it to them,

02:49.240 --> 02:51.180
so you have to do with this program

02:51.180 --> 02:53.900
and be in the room with leaderships too,

02:53.900 --> 02:55.190
'cause it's not going to be easy,

02:55.190 --> 02:57.160
technology is all around,

02:57.160 --> 02:59.850
it easy to find everything
you want on Google.

02:59.850 --> 03:01.800
When you be sitting here in 1968,

03:01.800 --> 03:03.970
waiting for your meals for three hours,

03:03.970 --> 03:06.270
and for three years, two
years, not sure enough,

03:06.270 --> 03:10.000
you at the battle, you
don't any care packages,

03:10.000 --> 03:12.060
here comes Amazon Prime,

03:12.060 --> 03:14.480
here comes this easy for them to get it

03:14.480 --> 03:17.400
so they think like the World
is at the tip of their hands,

03:17.400 --> 03:20.640
which it is not but, we
have to deal with it so

03:20.640 --> 03:22.093
it's technology age.

03:23.690 --> 03:25.790
- I don't understand a word you just said.

03:29.060 --> 03:31.640
I've been told that the
two of you were selected as

03:31.640 --> 03:33.820
first time traveling guests
because you were named

03:33.820 --> 03:35.193
Sailors of the Year,

03:36.320 --> 03:39.850
am I mistaken, or did
you tie for this title?

03:39.850 --> 03:42.756
- We tied.
- [A.P.] You tied.

03:42.756 --> 03:44.060
You're both Sailors of the Year.

03:44.060 --> 03:45.220
- That's right.

03:45.220 --> 03:47.690
- In 2019, everyone gets a trophy.

03:47.690 --> 03:48.523
- [Jenna] Everyone gets a trophy.

03:48.523 --> 03:49.356
- I see, yes.

03:51.160 --> 03:54.500
Is it safe to assume you were
both named Sailor of the Year

03:54.500 --> 03:57.990
because they were afraid to
tell Ms. Murray here that she,

03:57.990 --> 03:58.823
placed second?

04:00.540 --> 04:05.250
- I don't think so, because
not matter what you do,

04:05.250 --> 04:07.260
you deserve recognition,

04:07.260 --> 04:09.520
and I can tell you it's fantastic

04:09.520 --> 04:11.990
to have two Sailors of
the Year tied together,

04:11.990 --> 04:13.423
one female, one male.

04:15.090 --> 04:18.250
- Now were there two trophies
or do you share just one?

04:18.250 --> 04:20.350
- The trophy is in the
form of a parking spot,

04:20.350 --> 04:21.300
which we share.

04:21.300 --> 04:22.460
- [A.P.] I see.

04:22.460 --> 04:23.763
You share a parking spot?

04:25.440 --> 04:27.010
- We share it well.

04:27.010 --> 04:28.460
Split days.

04:28.460 --> 04:30.930
- Are you at all concerned
that she might realize

04:30.930 --> 04:33.840
that if something terrible
happens to both your tires,

04:33.840 --> 04:36.060
the parking spot would be all hers.

04:36.060 --> 04:38.400
- I don't think so because
she's very good one,

04:38.400 --> 04:41.170
and always cares and not
say did you get your spot

04:41.170 --> 04:42.460
because at time you'll get there,

04:42.460 --> 04:44.040
and somebody is parking there

04:44.040 --> 04:46.590
and you have to go find a
person to move their car.

04:47.680 --> 04:49.100
- ET2 Murray,

04:49.100 --> 04:51.538
I've been told that you're
in charge of both the

04:51.538 --> 04:53.970
49 and 73 radars, is that accurate?

04:53.970 --> 04:55.003
- It's accurate.

04:56.120 --> 04:59.680
- And is it also true that
those are both secondary radars?

04:59.680 --> 05:01.133
- Secondary.
- I see.

05:02.170 --> 05:04.270
I'm surprised you didn't
tie for the responsibility

05:04.270 --> 05:06.313
of maintaining primary radars.

05:09.654 --> 05:14.654
BM2, I'm no linguist, and
forgive me if I'm wrong but

05:14.770 --> 05:19.400
I think I detected a slight
accent, where are you from?

05:19.400 --> 05:21.400
And I'm willing to wager it's not Texas.

05:22.340 --> 05:24.730
- Originally I'm from
Ghana in West Africa,

05:24.730 --> 05:26.730
I don't know if you have heard about it.

05:28.090 --> 05:30.780
- I have not so I'm gonna
move on to the next question.

05:30.780 --> 05:31.613
- Okay.

05:34.580 --> 05:36.690
- Now both of you please
share with our viewers

05:36.690 --> 05:40.640
what you did to earn such
a distinguished title.

05:40.640 --> 05:42.270
- I personally don't know,

05:42.270 --> 05:43.910
I was actually really shocked

05:43.910 --> 05:47.963
and shocked that I was kept
in the same company as BM2.

05:48.820 --> 05:49.653
- And you?

05:51.000 --> 05:52.940
- I don't know what I did,

05:52.940 --> 05:55.770
do your job and somebody
will recognize you,

05:55.770 --> 05:56.900
that you are working.

05:56.900 --> 05:58.050
I'm not saying I'm better

05:58.050 --> 06:01.230
than all the Second Class onboard, but.

06:01.230 --> 06:03.680
- I'm sorry, you're better than
all Second Classes onboard?

06:03.680 --> 06:05.860
- I didn't say I'm better than
all the Second Class onboard.

06:05.860 --> 06:07.383
- Well I think you're back petaling now,

06:07.383 --> 06:08.696
is what you're doing.
- [Dominic] No, no,

06:08.696 --> 06:10.160
I think you need to pay attention,

06:10.160 --> 06:12.040
- [A.P.] Oh.
- And put your pipe down,

06:12.040 --> 06:14.180
and lets talk because

06:14.180 --> 06:15.620
your pipe and time traveling

06:15.620 --> 06:18.367
is messing with your
understanding and stuff right now.

06:18.367 --> 06:19.987
- [A.P.] Well again I've
traveled in time, you have,

06:19.987 --> 06:22.170
and this is my 1968,

06:22.170 --> 06:26.800
so I appreciate your concern for my health

06:26.800 --> 06:28.950
but I've done quite well
up until now, thank you.

06:28.950 --> 06:31.200
Technically you haven't
even been born yet so,

06:31.200 --> 06:34.290
again I appreciate your concern.

06:34.290 --> 06:36.900
- So can I continue now?
- Oh yes.

06:36.900 --> 06:39.220
- Okay, so.
- He's a live wire this one.

06:39.220 --> 06:43.360
- Yeah, I'm not better than
all the Second Class onboard,

06:43.360 --> 06:46.040
but since like the upper
chain recognized that here,

06:46.040 --> 06:48.950
he is doing some job, he need recognition,

06:48.950 --> 06:51.640
and people needs to know
that when you do your job,

06:51.640 --> 06:53.260
you are being watched.
- [A.P.] Right.

06:53.260 --> 06:55.600
- So I got a question for you.
- [A.P.] Oh.

06:55.600 --> 07:00.300
- So 1968, how do you
recognize your best Sailors?

07:00.300 --> 07:03.259
- Well we don't have any
good Sailors in 1968,

07:03.259 --> 07:04.709
so we don't worry about that.

07:06.257 --> 07:10.193
We don't require many
extrinsic motivators.

07:12.190 --> 07:14.980
Generally, bragging rights will do,

07:14.980 --> 07:18.020
we tend not to recognize our Sailors.

07:18.020 --> 07:22.370
- So you're trying to tell
me that my year group,

07:22.370 --> 07:27.370
because we have females,
we are not motivated or we.

07:27.380 --> 07:30.650
- No I think it has little
to do with the females,

07:30.650 --> 07:35.173
and the fact that most of your
men in 2019 are quite soft.

07:36.300 --> 07:38.250
- How do you define soft?

07:38.250 --> 07:39.880
- Well, not hard.

07:39.880 --> 07:42.760
- [Dominic] Not hard, how
do you define "not hard"?

07:42.760 --> 07:44.186
- [A.P.] Moving on.
- Okay.

07:44.186 --> 07:46.186
- [A.P.] Thank you, BM2.

07:48.580 --> 07:49.560
Is it fair to that say

07:49.560 --> 07:52.093
that you were a tyrant
in your work center?

07:53.130 --> 07:54.410
- Depends on the day.

07:54.410 --> 07:57.480
- Well your co-workers
drew a number or parallels

07:58.680 --> 08:02.510
lets see, "Pol Pot", "Ivan the Terrible"

08:02.510 --> 08:04.590
and someone named "Gaddafi".

08:04.590 --> 08:06.140
- I haven't heard that one yet.

08:07.335 --> 08:08.680
You'll have to ask them about that one.

08:08.680 --> 08:10.430
They added that to the list recently.

08:10.430 --> 08:13.520
- Would you say that's a
fair description of your

08:13.520 --> 08:18.230
- That I'm tyranist? Only
when they steal my snacks.

08:18.230 --> 08:20.330
Yeah I open my bag of sour gummy worms

08:20.330 --> 08:22.930
and it was half gone, so definitely.

08:22.930 --> 08:25.600
- Sic semper tyrannis.
- [Jenna] Sure.

08:25.600 --> 08:27.623
- You know who said that?
- [Jenna] Sure don't.

08:29.830 --> 08:31.310
- I've heard there was an incident

08:31.310 --> 08:32.873
at Fleet Week in New York,

08:33.790 --> 08:36.160
your returning to the ship

08:36.160 --> 08:39.290
in a Canadian Navy cover.

08:39.290 --> 08:40.970
- That's inaccurate I was not wearing it.

08:40.970 --> 08:41.803
- [A.P.] You were not wearing it.

08:41.803 --> 08:42.636
- It was tucked under my arm

08:42.636 --> 08:43.700
- Oh you were carrying it.

08:43.700 --> 08:45.770
Oh that makes it much better.
- [Jenna] It does.

08:45.770 --> 08:47.080
- Yeah, it doesn't sound

08:47.080 --> 08:48.990
that doesn't sound like behavior

08:48.990 --> 08:51.390
very becoming of the Sailor of the Year.

08:51.390 --> 08:52.927
- I wasn't the Sailor
of the Year, so yeah.

08:52.927 --> 08:55.010
Oh I see, this was prior to your being

08:55.010 --> 08:56.030
named the Sailor of the Year.

08:56.030 --> 08:57.490
- Right, two years prior so.

08:57.490 --> 08:58.920
Yeah people change, you know.

08:58.920 --> 09:03.913
- BM2, I've heard you recently
taken up weight lifting.

09:06.330 --> 09:08.470
Tell me, what are you doing wrong?

09:08.470 --> 09:10.170
- What am I doing wrong?

09:10.170 --> 09:11.920
For lifting weight ?
- [A.P.] Yes.

09:13.810 --> 09:16.260
Do either of you have
anything you'd like to add?

09:19.280 --> 09:21.040
- Those glasses came back in style.

09:21.040 --> 09:22.170
- They did?

09:22.170 --> 09:24.096
Oh well then I'll hang onto them then.

09:24.096 --> 09:25.983
- [Jenna] You should, pass them down.

09:25.983 --> 09:26.977
- Good, good, glad to hear that.

09:26.977 --> 09:28.860
- I just don't appreciate it,

09:28.860 --> 09:33.210
calling my generation soft,
because we are not soft.

09:33.210 --> 09:37.520
We are new generation. So
what I can tell you is that

09:37.520 --> 09:41.513
what you do now, to get in
trouble, not to get in trouble,

09:42.470 --> 09:44.440
when they do it, they'll get in trouble

09:44.440 --> 09:45.990
because it's called discipline.

09:47.470 --> 09:49.370
- We don't wear shirts on flight day.

09:49.370 --> 09:52.940
- I know you don't have
discipline, in 1968, that was it,

09:52.940 --> 09:55.350
but we do disciple our Sailors.

09:56.360 --> 09:58.820
Because it's not just bunch of males,

09:58.820 --> 10:02.890
you get females too, so we
train them how to fight,

10:02.890 --> 10:06.070
and we train them how to
disciplined to when they are there,

10:06.070 --> 10:07.710
and behave right.

10:07.710 --> 10:10.290
I don't know how you
behave on your liberty,

10:10.290 --> 10:13.050
but our guys know that
they need to behave right

10:13.050 --> 10:16.130
and disciplined and serve
because they represent America,

10:16.130 --> 10:18.620
and if you're going to
represent great nation,

10:18.620 --> 10:21.130
you have to know how
to discipline yourself.

10:21.130 --> 10:24.300
So don't call it soft,
it's called discipline.

10:24.300 --> 10:26.750
- You know in 1968, there
was really no problem

10:26.750 --> 10:29.383
that can't be solved with
a good punch in the face.

10:31.680 --> 10:34.130
Anyway thank you both for being here,

10:34.130 --> 10:36.040
I understand you've
traveled great distance

10:36.040 --> 10:37.700
through space and time,

10:37.700 --> 10:40.480
and our viewers very much appreciate it.

10:40.480 --> 10:43.300
Congratulations on your both
being named Sailor of the Year

10:43.300 --> 10:45.150
you're obviously doing something right,

10:45.150 --> 10:47.980
and please continue to
not kill each other.

10:47.980 --> 10:50.923
Oh, and good luck on being born and all.

10:52.780 --> 10:56.720

has been Less Bow, More Stern

10:58.272 --> 11:02.105
