Two corrections and a suggestion. First, a correction about Chaplains. While a Chaplain of a given religious faith would usually hold services in that faith, they would also hold services in other faiths if a Chaplain of that denomination was unavailable. So that a Protestant Chaplain might hold both Protestant AND Roman Catholic Services as an example.
A second correction. Fort Apache, Bronx is NOT a John Wayne movie. In fact, he might have been dead by the time that that movie was filmed. It is about a Police Station in Bronx, Now York that received the nickname of Fort Apache since someone one time reportedly shot an arrow into the station.
And the suggestion. While I know that your area of interpretation is the late 1980's/early 1990's, you should think about converting one of the crew's quarters (and possibly one of the officers quarters) into how it looked back when the ship was first commissioned. Even better would be one "room" showing what the crew's quarters were at various times during the ship's service.
At the top of the sheet, I like how it says, “must not be removed from the ship” glad someone did though!
Only catholic & protestant services?

Ryan we watch you and your videos of the USS New Jersey because it brings back fond memories for us that are retired and maybe for the active duty maybe dreams of what was like long ago in our great navy. Thank you and everyone else on the New Jersey for all that you do!
How were these printed? Did they have a printing press? Line printer?
The system for the USAF in England was as you described.
One day in the 80s the word was Dallas. On a US base in the 80s. Naturally someone mentioned the most popular us drama of the decade, and a few minutes later the bus was stormed by security personnel.
A sneak peek into when the EO garbage came in to supersede your actual ability to do your job. I remember it well.
Ryan, your excitement at having this artifact comes through loud and clear in this video! Thanks for sharing.
Very cool. I used to live in Singapore from 1982 until 1984, as s high school teen. I remember seeing a US flattop anchored in harbor among oil tankers etc. It really dwarfed anything by it's sheer height. Those behavioural regulations had to be followed by everyone, you risked your whole family being kicked out, if not.
Channel 6…0900. Great movie!
What caught my attention was the fact there was 3 CCTV channels, and how many different movies. USS Inchon LPH-12 82-85. We had 1 channel. Solid Gold dancers and the same movies over and over. It kept the TV addiction going.
What does "man the rail" mean? Does it mean that sailors go to their work?
P.S. Did people on battelships work in shifts?
Does the cctv system still work?
DC on the funnel? LOL Brain Fart!
That was really cool. Reminds me of the newsletter you'd get aboard Royal Caribbean ship, like how to spend your time ashore, facts and warnings about the port and it's laws, and even the menu and tv-guide are similar!
Was there ever a baby born on the ship. If so where is that person now?
I would be interested what restrictions are placed on the use of cell phones and the internet on modern day warships. The sailors can't be carrying them around the ship, can they?
As a retired Sailor I can tell you we lived for a quiet Sunday holiday routine.
Steel beach picnic underway and max rest.
There was a saying choose your rate choose your fate
Interesting glimpse of life aboard ship. The first thing you should do is photocopy the original POD and put in safe storage, using only a photocopy for your videos and research. You might accidentally spill something on it. Bits of your lunch are stuck in your beard, dude. Libby must have forgotten to do your pre-video makeup check. 😅
I really appreciate your efforts! Could you help me with something unrelated: I have a SafePal wallet with USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). How should I go about transferring them to Binance?
my duress word is pineapple juice, lol
As a former US sailor, this brought so much nostalgia to me. I totally forgot how "binding" the POD was. Maybe binding is the wrong word. An old XO used to put "joke of the day" on his. This could result in boos or cheers. The POD you share in this video is spectacular. So much information! Brovo Zulu XO!!!
Ryan, you are in potential trouble. That is a classified document that is not to be made available to the general public. It is FOUO. For Official Use Only. This is the lowest level of classification used in the military.
Ok I got to say this before watching. During my 4 years active duty I read the POD a total of 4 times. Certainly didn't feel any obligation to follow it in most cases.
Ryan, you spoke about the DC training being done in the POD. Every duty section had to hold a DC drill normally after Dinner each and every day. It could be fire, flooding, assist another ship. Once in a while, we would do a Security drill to mix things up. 7 days a week. Except Christmas & New Years.

Oh! Idea for a video…let’s see more on the Printed Shop. 👍🏼
I was 1 year and 81 days old
The first step to preserving paper is neutralizing the acids in the paper and ink. Making a digital scan is advisable, but that does not preserve the original document.
