WEBVTT

00:00.345 --> 00:02.928
(upbeat music)

00:23.219 --> 00:24.880
- My name is Captain Michael Lucket,

00:24.880 --> 00:28.290
and I'm the Commanding
officer USS Emory S Land.

00:28.290 --> 00:30.270
- My name is Jamie Mathlin

00:30.270 --> 00:34.470
and I am the master of
the USS Emory S Land.

00:34.470 --> 00:38.310
We are one of only two
submarine tenders in the Navy.

00:38.310 --> 00:40.900
Our mission is to repair, rearm

00:40.900 --> 00:44.000
and resupply the USS submarines.

00:44.000 --> 00:48.210
If he sign anymore from our
forward deployed home for a plan

00:49.180 --> 00:51.480
and for expeditionary locations,

00:51.480 --> 00:54.910
anywhere across the Western
Pacific and Indian ocean.

00:54.910 --> 00:57.240
- We are uniquely men with a hybrid crew

00:57.240 --> 01:00.470
of Navy sailors and civilian mariners.

01:00.470 --> 01:02.560
We're responsible for
the navigation material,

01:02.560 --> 01:06.220
condition engineering,
feeding, and hotel services,

01:06.220 --> 01:08.700
submarine support accommodations.

01:08.700 --> 01:11.780
Our mission success depends on the skill

01:11.780 --> 01:14.800
and dedication of each
member of this crew,

01:14.800 --> 01:16.790
both civilian and military,

01:16.790 --> 01:19.770
all working together towards common goals.

01:19.770 --> 01:21.460
- Whether MSC or Navy,

01:21.460 --> 01:24.634
this is our ship and we
are one ship, one crew.

01:24.634 --> 01:27.217
(upbeat music)

01:33.400 --> 01:35.023
- Half a day and welcome
aboard the USS Emory S land.

01:36.459 --> 01:38.920
I'm Zach Groeman and
I'll be your tour guide,

01:38.920 --> 01:40.012
let's get started.

01:40.012 --> 01:42.595
(upbeat music)

01:56.400 --> 01:59.353
Here we are in the machine
shop, this is MRF Carillo.

02:00.630 --> 02:03.381
- Welcome to the USS
Emory S Land machine shop,

02:03.381 --> 02:05.840
we are the biggest machine
shop in the entire fleet.

02:05.840 --> 02:07.860
As you see in front of
you is the many projects

02:07.860 --> 02:09.400
and different tools that we use

02:09.400 --> 02:12.970
to accomplish our rigorous capabilities.

02:12.970 --> 02:14.000
As you see over here,

02:14.000 --> 02:16.153
we can do many things
with the many machines

02:16.153 --> 02:18.140
that we have in this shop.

02:18.140 --> 02:21.391
If you follow me this way,
I'll show you one of our sides.

02:21.391 --> 02:23.974
(upbeat music)

02:24.960 --> 02:26.150
This is on lay side,

02:26.150 --> 02:30.250
we use this for more of our
rotational kind of parts

02:30.250 --> 02:31.360
that we have to make.

02:31.360 --> 02:36.360
So, it comes in various of
bolts, nuts and high fittings,

02:38.400 --> 02:42.490
flanges and other things
that are like that.

02:42.490 --> 02:44.750
We use only beams for some

02:44.750 --> 02:47.391
of the bigger kind of awkward jobs.

02:47.391 --> 02:50.080
(upbeat music)

02:50.080 --> 02:52.240
So, this is our mill side,

02:52.240 --> 02:56.240
whenever we have to do
any kind of pump fittings

02:56.240 --> 03:00.840
or kind of awkward jobs that
we can accomplish on a wave,

03:00.840 --> 03:02.430
we'd be able to do it here.

03:02.430 --> 03:04.530
Some of the many projects
that we were able to do

03:04.530 --> 03:08.250
is machines props, hello bars,

03:08.250 --> 03:10.772
and other things kind of like that.

03:10.772 --> 03:13.355
(upbeat music)

03:15.980 --> 03:17.460
So as you see in front of you

03:17.460 --> 03:22.273
is the legendary land of
opportunity, USS Emory land logo.

03:23.232 --> 03:25.815
(upbeat music)

04:06.725 --> 04:07.950
And that's all from the machines up,

04:07.950 --> 04:09.591
I hope you enjoy the rest of your tour.

04:09.591 --> 04:12.174
(upbeat music)

04:49.626 --> 04:52.293
- Now let's go decompress ND one.

04:54.350 --> 04:55.480
- Hi, how you doing?

04:55.480 --> 04:57.290
Welcome to the diving division,

04:57.290 --> 04:58.860
my name is Michael Reedy,

04:58.860 --> 05:01.680
I'm a Navy diver first
class, United States Navy.

05:01.680 --> 05:03.840
Come over here, I wanna show
you something pretty cool.

05:03.840 --> 05:06.240
Right here, we have the
Mark five diving helmet,

05:06.240 --> 05:07.660
this was used back in the eighties

05:07.660 --> 05:09.520
to do underwater ships husbandry work,

05:09.520 --> 05:11.330
they actually use these types of helmets

05:11.330 --> 05:12.563
during Pearl Harbor,

05:13.980 --> 05:16.030
it's newer, a little bit newer version.

05:16.030 --> 05:20.030
We now have a Mark 21
diving helmet, all right?

05:20.030 --> 05:21.850
Both these helmets were used

05:21.850 --> 05:23.680
to do underwater shifts husbandry works.

05:23.680 --> 05:26.371
Some of that would be putting
on patches or cofferdams

05:26.371 --> 05:27.483
and things of that nature

05:27.483 --> 05:30.350
so that we can work
internally on the ship,

05:30.350 --> 05:33.780
as well as blade change outs on a ship

05:33.780 --> 05:36.163
or stave bearing
replacements on a summary.

05:37.170 --> 05:39.223
Now, in case someone gets hurt,

05:39.223 --> 05:41.090
we also have the Dixie chamber,

05:41.090 --> 05:44.590
this chamber was built in 1976,

05:44.590 --> 05:47.190
usually takes about
four men to operate it,

05:47.190 --> 05:50.590
two person or one person driving it,

05:50.590 --> 05:52.583
another person on comms
and logs in a supervisor,

05:52.583 --> 05:54.620
as well as inside tender on the inside,

05:54.620 --> 05:57.289
kind of like a nurse
taking care of patients.

05:57.289 --> 05:59.872
(upbeat music)

06:31.300 --> 06:33.810
Well, I hope you enjoyed
your tour of the dive locker,

06:33.810 --> 06:36.503
I appreciate you stopping
by, here we're deep sea.

06:43.540 --> 06:45.397
- All right from here, we're
going to go to the mess place,

06:45.397 --> 06:46.997
but let's take the scenic route.

06:50.330 --> 06:52.913
(upbeat music)

07:39.370 --> 07:41.020
All right, let's now talk to Mr January

07:41.020 --> 07:42.320
and see what's for dinner.

07:43.609 --> 07:46.192
(upbeat music)

07:48.050 --> 07:51.030
- Hello, my names are second
cook, Jeffery January.

07:51.030 --> 07:53.653
I am standing in for
the chief cook position.

07:54.490 --> 07:56.770
My job is to order the food,

07:56.770 --> 08:00.030
maintain the food
presentations, sanitation,

08:00.030 --> 08:01.950
and help with other food.

08:01.950 --> 08:05.743
And my job also consists
help painting the menu,

08:06.820 --> 08:09.870
we try to get a diverse menu
along with I got the choice.

08:09.870 --> 08:13.840
We prepare about 700
portions of food, each meal,

08:13.840 --> 08:16.160
so that's 2100 portions a day.

08:16.160 --> 08:18.360
We have the morale for the crew,

08:18.360 --> 08:20.790
the better the food, the better the crew,

08:20.790 --> 08:21.890
the better the morale.

08:22.770 --> 08:26.830
This is our dining facility
which have 50 setting,

08:26.830 --> 08:29.570
It brings back to me for the
old people who are a lot older

08:29.570 --> 08:31.740
and all this when we sit at here.

08:31.740 --> 08:33.940
Normally we feed about 200 plus people,

08:33.940 --> 08:36.960
but due to social
distance, we only feed 44.

08:36.960 --> 08:39.210
We have all our social events here,

08:39.210 --> 08:42.560
pizza nights, hot dog
nights, nacho nights.

08:42.560 --> 08:45.460
We have those nights to
help bring the crew down

08:45.460 --> 08:48.420
in this time, when social
distancing is very limited,

08:48.420 --> 08:49.470
but they can still come down

08:49.470 --> 08:51.830
and enjoy a nice social gathering,

08:51.830 --> 08:53.180
within the distance.

08:53.180 --> 08:54.500
And it makes it feel a lot better

08:54.500 --> 08:56.100
because you need that morale.

08:56.100 --> 08:59.410
And coming out for a hot
dog or pizza and a soda,

08:59.410 --> 09:00.800
get away from the daytime,

09:00.800 --> 09:02.540
it makes you feel a lot better,

09:02.540 --> 09:05.406
you can relax, enjoy yourself.

09:05.406 --> 09:07.989
(upbeat music)

09:10.020 --> 09:11.250
- All right, well, I'm pretty cool.

09:11.250 --> 09:12.850
So let's go ahead to the chapel.

09:13.984 --> 09:16.567
(upbeat music)

09:26.540 --> 09:28.810
- Hello everyone, my
name RP one Mya green,

09:28.810 --> 09:30.040
I am the leading petty officer

09:30.040 --> 09:31.990
of the religious ministry team.

09:31.990 --> 09:34.810
With my team, we have,
Lieutenant Commander Mayor,

09:34.810 --> 09:38.300
chaplain Mayor and RP two mamoni.

09:38.300 --> 09:41.340
So some of the functions
of the chapel here,

09:41.340 --> 09:43.080
as you see here we have
some of our camera roll,

09:43.080 --> 09:45.500
which is our community relations projects,

09:45.500 --> 09:48.570
so this is a big part of what we do here.

09:48.570 --> 09:50.970
We absolutely love giving
back to the community,

09:50.970 --> 09:53.160
whether it's our community in Guam

09:53.160 --> 09:55.450
or the communities that we
visited during our port call.

09:55.450 --> 09:57.440
So what we do here is we can do a matter

09:57.440 --> 10:00.410
of clean up projects, we can
do a matter of feeding people,

10:00.410 --> 10:02.790
we can do matter of
whatever the people need,

10:02.790 --> 10:04.440
whether it's building something

10:04.440 --> 10:06.800
or whatever we can do to
give back to the community.

10:06.800 --> 10:10.320
We also have sister villages
here on the USS Emory S Land,

10:10.320 --> 10:11.590
we have three sisters villages,

10:11.590 --> 10:15.480
one is Dededo, one is
Asin, and one is Mariso.

10:15.480 --> 10:18.280
So, what we do is we team up
with those villages in Guam

10:18.280 --> 10:20.550
to provide whatever we can
to those sister villages.

10:20.550 --> 10:23.750
So we as a team with the
different chaplains on Island

10:23.750 --> 10:26.140
and different religious
measure teams on Island can do,

10:26.140 --> 10:29.290
to help the local communities in Guam.

10:29.290 --> 10:31.850
So this is where we have
our services on Wednesdays,

10:31.850 --> 10:33.430
our Bible study services

10:33.430 --> 10:36.610
and our Sunday services at 10 o'clock.

10:36.610 --> 10:38.370
We are the resource for the crew members

10:38.370 --> 10:39.870
at any time that they need us.

10:39.870 --> 10:40.703
At the end of the day,

10:40.703 --> 10:42.320
it's a hundred percent confidentiality,

10:42.320 --> 10:43.820
whatever we can do to provide.

10:44.930 --> 10:46.540
- Well, that was a great
presentation by RP one,

10:46.540 --> 10:48.324
now let's go to the barbershop

10:48.324 --> 10:50.074
and get our hair cut.

10:54.644 --> 10:55.477
(door opening)

10:55.477 --> 10:56.540
- Hi, I'm RSS Hampton

10:56.540 --> 10:59.130
and I'm head of the retail
service specialists community.

10:59.130 --> 11:02.490
We specialize in providing our
sailors with customer service

11:02.490 --> 11:06.500
and morale boosting operations
by running the ship store,

11:06.500 --> 11:08.460
barber shop and vending machines.

11:08.460 --> 11:10.780
In the barber shop, we
strive to give our sailors,

11:10.780 --> 11:12.580
a comfortable relaxing outlet

11:12.580 --> 11:13.610
for the short amount of time,

11:13.610 --> 11:15.550
they're away from their work.

11:15.550 --> 11:18.380
Our ship started providing
a variety of snacks, drinks,

11:18.380 --> 11:20.300
toiletries and any other necessities,

11:20.300 --> 11:23.340
a sailor might need or run
out of at any given time.

11:23.340 --> 11:25.240
Our vending machines are open 24 seven

11:25.240 --> 11:28.023
for any late night snacks
or cravings you might need.

11:29.150 --> 11:31.738
Thanks for visiting us
three, have a great day.

11:31.738 --> 11:33.820
(upbeat music)

11:33.820 --> 11:35.260
- All right, now that we got a fresh cut

11:35.260 --> 11:38.569
from the barbershop, let's
go head up to the bridge.

11:38.569 --> 11:41.152
(upbeat music)

11:57.900 --> 12:00.220
- Morning everyone, my name
is Ensign Nicholas Chang,

12:00.220 --> 12:02.060
I'm a strategic Sea lift officer

12:02.060 --> 12:05.620
and I'm here sailing with
MSC as their third officer.

12:05.620 --> 12:06.990
I'm just going to give you a little tour

12:06.990 --> 12:09.200
of the navigational bridge
and all of the equipment

12:09.200 --> 12:11.120
that we use on a daily basis.

12:11.120 --> 12:13.230
So right in front of me,
this is our chart table,

12:13.230 --> 12:15.790
so we do all of our physical plotting.

12:15.790 --> 12:17.980
Right here, is our
universal plotting sheet,

12:17.980 --> 12:20.600
we have universal plotting
sheet because there's no reason

12:20.600 --> 12:24.740
to have actual charts for the open ocean,

12:24.740 --> 12:25.850
so we have blank sheets

12:25.850 --> 12:28.720
that we just put out a
latitudes and longitudes on.

12:28.720 --> 12:31.580
So we do our fixes on this sheet,

12:31.580 --> 12:35.040
it gives us a more accurate
and precise location

12:35.040 --> 12:36.450
of where we are.

12:36.450 --> 12:38.910
And then, we have a bigger
plotting sheet, kind of,

12:38.910 --> 12:40.550
we could simply call it the voice sheet

12:40.550 --> 12:43.150
where we have our
position every four hours.

12:43.150 --> 12:45.003
So at the start of every watch,

12:46.070 --> 12:49.500
radar simply stands for
radio detection and ranging,

12:49.500 --> 12:51.250
they're actually really really good

12:53.724 --> 12:55.400
for recording distances

12:55.400 --> 12:59.890
and we could use them for
collision avoidance based means

12:59.890 --> 13:04.400
let's not crash into anything
and terrestrial navigation,

13:04.400 --> 13:07.260
so we can take bearings and ranges.

13:07.260 --> 13:10.310
So, it gives us a general
location of where we are,

13:10.310 --> 13:14.640
especially when we're transiting
up rivers and near harbors.

13:14.640 --> 13:16.410
All right, move right here in front of me

13:16.410 --> 13:17.500
is the actus, it stands

13:17.500 --> 13:20.580
for electronic chart
display information system,

13:20.580 --> 13:22.820
is essentially the Swiss army knife

13:22.820 --> 13:25.620
with a jack of all trades kind of tool

13:25.620 --> 13:26.850
on the navigational bridge,

13:26.850 --> 13:30.040
It does everything, almost everything

13:30.040 --> 13:34.120
that we'll ever need
in terms of navigation,

13:34.120 --> 13:37.220
that's all displayed right
here, if you choose to do it.

13:37.220 --> 13:38.860
There's also other sensors

13:40.250 --> 13:45.250
like sunrise, sunset, speed, current wind,

13:45.570 --> 13:47.380
all that feeds into the actus

13:47.380 --> 13:50.270
and it gives you a general
idea of what you wanna do,

13:50.270 --> 13:51.470
how you're gonna do it,

13:51.470 --> 13:54.480
and whether or not it's
a safe way to do it.

13:54.480 --> 13:57.840
This is the helm, where
we do all of our steering,

13:57.840 --> 14:00.370
as well as our speed changes,

14:00.370 --> 14:02.470
this isn't a new diesel electric shift,

14:02.470 --> 14:03.660
it's actually an old steam shift.

14:03.660 --> 14:07.180
So we actually have the
call down to the engine room

14:07.180 --> 14:11.330
on either the one JV over here or the EOT,

14:11.330 --> 14:13.780
which stands for engine order telegraph

14:13.780 --> 14:17.300
and give them a speed change

14:17.300 --> 14:18.600
so that down in the engine room,

14:18.600 --> 14:20.400
they could throttle the speed.

14:20.400 --> 14:22.290
So, right here we have
a four head right now,

14:22.290 --> 14:24.613
so if we actually bring it to slower head,

14:26.220 --> 14:29.270
we should get a little bell indicating

14:29.270 --> 14:30.890
that the engine got the order

14:30.890 --> 14:33.190
and then they'll adjust
the speed accordingly.

14:34.246 --> 14:36.260
(bell ringing)

14:36.260 --> 14:37.093
Thank you.

14:39.100 --> 14:40.780
The ship's also about 40 years old,

14:40.780 --> 14:43.110
so there's no autopilot feature,

14:43.110 --> 14:43.943
so we actually have

14:43.943 --> 14:46.358
to have a helmsman steering at all times.

14:46.358 --> 14:47.403
- Here's the right time

14:47.403 --> 14:50.736
(starting of an engine)

14:52.270 --> 14:53.880
- All right, this ends our little tour

14:53.880 --> 14:55.250
of the navigational bridge

14:55.250 --> 14:57.400
that gave you guys a
little brief description

14:57.400 --> 14:59.620
of all the navigational tools that we use

14:59.620 --> 15:02.420
for the safe navigation of the vessel.

15:02.420 --> 15:04.900
Hope you enjoyed it, have a good day.

15:04.900 --> 15:07.317
(soft music)

15:08.980 --> 15:10.490
- Well, I think I see your hand up ahead,

15:10.490 --> 15:13.190
so I'm assuming that's your stop.

15:13.190 --> 15:15.730
I hope you had a good
time on this tour end,

15:15.730 --> 15:18.496
the winds and the sea, see you next time.

15:18.496 --> 15:21.079
(upbeat music)
