You can learn too much sometimes...online...via Youtube...thinks the US Navy.
A sailor created a four minute video "Women of CVN 76: 'That Don't Impress Me Much'," and posted it on Youtube.
CVN 76 is the call sign for the aircraft carrier Ronald Reagan, home to 5,500 sailors.
31,000 viewers later and the US Navy thought everyone had
seen enough.Though the video "was a lighthearted and positive description of women officers and sailors aboard aircraft carriers and in Navy squadrons," a Navy spokesman thought the video producers exercised a "lack of propriety" in scenes involving sailors dancing and lip-synching with safety equipment.
One sailor danced in a full-body radiation suit and showed the doors to the Reagan's nuclear power plant.
Navy regulations - no dissemination of photos of anything related to the ships nuclear propulsion gear...Big PERIOD.
Not the Youtube video in question -

I made the video called "livin on the edge" which is embedded above on this site. I make videos such as this out of recognition and respect for those whose serve in the cause of freedom, and an amazement for the technology of aviation and in this video, naval technology. Weather I am standing on the flight deck of the USS Ronald Reagan during flight ops 1000 miles out to sea, or sitting on my couch at home, I am in awe at the tecnical capability and caliber of people that is and are the United States Armed Forces.
The above article regarding the other video, "Women of CVN 76: 'That Don't Impress Me Much'," is in no way associated with my videos and I wish to express that I do not and would not publish anything that would shed a negative image on the US Armed Forces or thier personal. To those of you who are in the military or were in the past, I say thank you for your service. We are free as a nation due to your efforts and sacrifices.
