Very good show. Non-bias opinions from sailors and marines on board the USS Nimitz. I think it was filmed in 2004-05 time frame.

Very cool show... There was a FA-18 driver who wasn't really hip on going to Iraq and questioned our governments reasoning but still did his job. The Wing Commander made some comment about him (paraphasing) like "The only thing wrong with Jonny is he's Blue" then the commander got a big grin on his face. There were a hand full of enlisted people who weren't happy about the Iraqi war but they did their jobs because they knew marines and soldiers depend on their support.

Definately worth watching...
