What a fascinating series!
Maybe one of the stranger documentary series I have ever watched. It is a really disconcerting view of life on board the USS Nimitz, an American Navy aircraft carrier.
You see young dumb ignorant kids, cocky macho unthinkingly obedient pilots, open racists, awesome machinery and a light sprinkling of conflicted liberals and skepticism.
It ends with a weird note of defensiveness that perfectly captures the weirdness of war in Iraq and the inevitable realization it is this century’s Vietnam War for America.
