Outstanding video of replenishment to those units serving underway & forward deployed to the mission area of operations. BZ to the professional merchant mariners of Military Sealift Command delivering critical resources to the warfighter far from home. This is how the US NAVY Fleet battle force stays on station for 120+ days without seeing land. Carry on shipmates.

I remember doing this almost every other day when I was in

I spent a lot of time hooked up to replenishment ships. It’s of work but very rewarding. At 19, I was a refueling station captain, master helmsman and QMOW qualified.

My grandpa served on the uss ponchatoula AO 148 from 68-69 fueling many carriers couple destroyers one of em he told me was the kitty hawk & the enterprise. He sure loved sailing across the sea seeing dolphins whales or the views. Or docking into subic Bay or into home port of pearl harbor.

I was on the Bataan With 2/2 back in 2007 for the 26th MEU and remember doing this. Forming a giant line through the ship to manhandle stuff to where it needed to go. Fun times, I guess.

Been there done that. Refueling evolution every 3 days at around midnight or so, all the while wearing those quality kapok lifejackets. Very rarely did any kind of daylight refueling.
