That whole video was so cool. Being a military (specifically Navy) brat, and having lived on or near bases from the time I was 6 until I graduated HS (and still visited my parents on bases for another couple of years) I feel an attachment to this sort of thing.

My dad was stationed in Rota, Spain as his last duty station before he retired. I got to visit 2 summers, and saw a Spanish aircraft carrier. It was shocking how tiny it was and the fact that the front was a ramp instead of flat like ours.
