    I was a Black Knight LSE, saw the World and worked on the h-3 and H-60. I brought in a CH-53E one day. I barely weighed 100 lbs. It picked me up and threw me down the Flight Deck Of CVN-70. USS Carl Vinson 87-91. Great Times.

    I love your page, I'm soon joining the navy just trying to get my body in shape before I go to boot camp, I'm 22 and weigh 275 now but I've lost over 30 pounds in the last 2 months. I'm watching all your videos they motivate me to do better and help me a lot, keep up the great work

    I've done this aboard a carrier and all I can say is the pilots don't follow orders, they pretty much listen to the Aircrew who's sticking their head out the window.

    Good times. When I went 3 years ago they never made us swing the tail....weird. It was still extremely fun and definitely better than being back on the ship haha

    Gotta learn to do it with style! Obviously when you first learn, you’ll sort of be stiff, but after a couple of months, you’ll have your own smooth style. Did this for 5 years as an ABH (yellow shirt) on the USS Saipan from 99-04! Good times. My favorite were night ops when we chosen few got to use NODs or Night Vision Goggles.

      Hi, mind me asking how long it generally takes to become a yellow shirt? Also, do you learn this in A-school? If not, when? Thanks you!

    I normally see the ground Marshaller throw his hands up twice to indicate (same as Fixed-wing), that he is the marshaller. Than he flips his palms outward, and puts his Arms up and mimics the Helos' position re: AIR-TO-GROUND and gradually guides to the Landing LZ.

    Love these videos, i'm actually a grad student in diplomatic and policy/war studies, but I am obsessed over small details like the USA DOD UCCDs and how America unified its branches after OP URGENT FURY (1983 Grenada). I will admit it, I'm a sucker for U.S Power projection because it is n1 by, well, a long-shot. I sometimes wonder if Americans realise how powerful their Country is. You guys literally rule the world by $USD, and by DOD. But don't take that to sound like world domination; it's more you have that power but you only use it for good. BTW, do USA citizens call their U.S a country or Nation? Thanks, from POLAND, Europe.

    This looks much easier than doing it on the flight deck of an aircraft carrier when you have to worry about jet blast on the angle and prop wash from the East going to the bow cats. Still my hats off to fellow LSEs.

    You dont need to marshall a helicopter....waste of time and too risky. The pilot cant even see you anyway, he's going by what he sees on the runway.

      JTsuits I enjoyed Crypto more but the flight deck had its moments .... then I became a Career Councilor. Although very rewarding to help others, my motivation fell to nothing and I got out two years later (I won't go into the story, here, but I have gone back to finish off my career instead of wasting those 11 years).
