The short timer change we all had one just not from a head set

The British Navy had a simliar film about this made in the 1940's

This is based on a 1944 royal navy training film czcams.com/video/af3veRBDJm0/video.htmlsi=u4LutTuqGTAM2j0q

Wow! this is definitely a blast from the past. I found it just by luck. I also saw this during training back in '76 and little did I know that I would be reporting to my first ship USS Lawrence (the Larry Boat as we affectionally called it) in January '77. Great times. I started as a snipe (FR-FN) in the engineroom and then crossed over to a MS3 Loved my tour of duty

Helpful, thank you

I watched this film in boot camp in 1978. The one thing that the instructor said was this: Don't cut corners.

There is a WW 2 Royal Navy training film on CZcams "Damage Control - A Story of Seven Sailors" that is very similar to this film, to the point that I wonder if this piece was based on the old film.

Very interesting

Oh this is cool 😎. ⚓⚓⚓. I was on the U.S.S. SCHOFIELD FFG 3 EN3. 81/84 . Thanks For Sharing

I'm surprised by commands being given in a way that makes them easy to misinterpret if truncated.

I want this Navy back!

I saw this film in a Damage Control class at Recruit Training Command-Orlando back in 1975. I never forgot it. I was 17 years old then and would go on to Submarine School, USS Ulysses S. Grant (SSBN-631), and sea patrols in the North Atlantic. The avatar is me as a Department of the Navy civilian at Camp Fallujah, Iraq in 2006, some 31 years later.

(Why does the Navy call your job your "rate", and not your MOS?)

Damnit, I wanted to see that DDG SINK! can't these shitbirds do ANYTHING right? BTW, what the f*ck were F-104s and P-80s shooting missiles at a USN DDG for? Electric Boogaloo?

U.S.S. Lawrence (DDG-4) Charles F. Adams Class.

those sailors were so hot in those tight uniforms😉

I saw this in Boot Camp in 1975. All of us enjoyed it and it was very informative!

8:45 "...here shown in blue." Uh, captain...everything is blue!

I found this Training Film by accident while surfing the web. It was good to see this Training film still alive and kicking after all these years. USS Lawrence (DDG-4) was the Third ship I had been assigned to while in the Navy. My first was right out of HM (Hospital Corpsman) "A" School in Long Beach Navy Shipyard, The USS Haven (AH-12) and the USS Forrestal (CVA-59). Seeing pictures of the crew from back then, Wow! Lt. Lane played the Captain, He was my Division Officer (N division). Brings back memories.

I joined the Navy in 1977 a signalman. I remember this training film. This and the fire on the Enterprise are the ones that I still remember.

Any Jarhead would Know Better Of Dereliction of duty to Scuttle the Ship by Neglecting to Secure a Hatchway... USS Forrestal is the Real Fire... On Ship Everyone is a Fire Fighter, yet If you don't know how you can Destroy the Whole Ship... Not a Navy Sailor, But there is No Where You Can Go... Love Self, Protect Life, Cultivate Beauty, Peace..!!!

LOL!! WTF I saw this in boot in 87 LOL!

I didn't see this the film I'll never forget was 115volts the deadly shipmate.

I remember watching this in boot camp in 1980, great film that made a lasting impression!

My CC in boot camp, called this " Seven Dickheads "🤣

I saw this film in basic training in Orlando, FL summer of 1977! Training Unit 187 CC RM1 Gillette.

I remember seeing this film in Coast Guard boot camp in 1971

Thanks for the memoirs, I remember seeing this in boot camp. 1983 Great Lakes. CO.940.

Born in 68 when made. Became a Signalman in 86 and I watched this every year my first ship USS Coronado. Its still a classic. Bravo Zulu who posted this

I always remembered this film as, "Seven Deadly Shipmates," but maybe I'm conflating it with other training films....? Scared the crap out of me when I first came in....

One of my family members was in this

I was the guy in the DCC talking on the sound powered phone. I weighed137 pounds, now closer to 237.On the Larry for 3 .1/2 years as an IC man. Rest of my service in schools and boot camp. One North Atlantic cruise and I think 3 Med cruises.

remember this film from boot camp, 1976. my company commander, mm1, always said damage control is the #1 job in the navy. and know 2 ways out of your spaces. located my cc on facebook about 4 years ago, he's a nice guy, who knew?

Basically, this ship was sunk by porno mags. Ok, so lets put real women on the ships and see how well this works.

Memories! Saw this in DC school before heading to DD845.

They were still showing this in 82

I was a cryptologist, but the movie was not classified. It was a training video.

I was in a training movie while in the navy back in 1981 or 1982. The movie was called Phone Security. Any chance you could find this?

6:57 MAN.......!!!!!!😍😘😍😍😍😘 Look at all those dirty porn magazines!!!!!! Lol 😂 😂😂😂🤣😂🤣😅

“What’s that, a boob mag??”

I remember watching this very film at NTC San Diego back in 1977. A chief told us then that every rule we have in the navy was usually bought at the cost of lives lost. I never forgot that. BM2 USN 1977-84

I had this film declassified in the early 90s. I played the part of Ron Cramer, the guy who’s coming out of the hole with the 5 gal. can. And who took the short timers chain. That portion was filmed in M/B division compartment. I was a BT aboard the USS Lawrence DDG-4 when it was filmed in May-June of 1968.

C'mon Chief, that's "zero-lima," not "oscar-lima! Sheesh!

May God save us from ourselves!

Man, that P250 could be a pain to start sometimes, wasn't it? I served on USS Buchanan, DDG 14...

I saw this film at Great Lakes during apprenticeship training in 1985....I made sure I always closed those watertight doors!

Yoke is no joke!
