My favorite is the sign on the machine shop ‘the difficult we do right away, the impossible will take a little longer’
That's one of my favorites too! Haha, such a cool sign. We hope you enjoyed the video!
I love touring places that hold a place in history. Thanks for the video!
@@RobbieGraybeal Touring these locations is so incredible. When you hear the stories that come with the places that you’re at, it brings a level of context that really makes the experience special and unique. We’re happy you enjoyed the video! We’ll have more coming with different locations including some that have historical relevance, if you haven’t seen the YorkTown video that is before this you’ll enjoy that one as well! Thank you for the comment!
I was last there in 2005. It sure has changed. Best part of your video, I think, was the salute to VETs. The was Laffey's call sign NTHI as you read it. Great video.
Thank you so much! We're happy you enjoyed the video! We also have another video that focuses on USS YorkTown. Patriots Point is such a great place to visit and to explore, it's a history buff's dream that's for sure and I believe that's why we enjoy it so much, there is so much to learn.
It’s wild there. I can’t imagine what it was like to live there for so long.
I know, I've thought the same thing! Super impressive, and the mindset of the people is unbelievable.
With the continuous selfies, why bore us with your faces over and over? The mic will pickup your childish comments without the selfies.
Thanks for the feedback! Well we do hope you enjoyed the video regardless, Patriots Point is an incredible place to visit and hopefully we captured enough of what it offers to intrigue you to perhaps visit one day.
Personally I love the selfies ❤ y’all are cute 😊
Thanks! 😊
@@Universally_Free If you noticed red wires in the Yorktown wiring run and blinking alarm heads clamped in the overhead, that's the alarm system my ham radio club helped install so Scouts could sleep aboard. I used to spend hundreds of hours volunteering on the ships refurbing them. Each month I would carry my kilowatt ham station to operate WA4USN on the ship worldwide. We sent QSL cards to over 130 countries and go ham radio badges for thousands of Scouts weekending on Yorktown. My call is W4CSC.
Very interesting! Thank you for sharing that's very cool to know.
Talk way too much? 😢
Good thing or bad thing? Lol, we hope you enjoyed the video! Have you been to Patriots Point?
