The Hardest-Working Crew In The Navy

DannyG | August 6, 2008

That would be the engineers in the heart of the ship. They keep it powered and running. They'll tell you themselves that they're the hardest workers onboard, but take a tour of their work area and you’ll believe them without question. They have to wear earplugs and work in heat that rises to at least 130 degrees in some spots. I took the tour for five minutes and couldn’t wait until it was over so I could escape the sauna. And these guys and gals work in that heat day in and day out, for several months at a time while deployed.
