Almost two years ago I, with my daughter and granddaughter took the USS Iowa tour. I had wondered how my granddaughter would “tolerate” the long tour. It was a welcome surprise to have the “Vicky” (Victory) kids tour along the walking tour. “Vicky” was the captain’s dog turned mascot and kids are encouraged to look and note where the Vicky “signs” and information are located.
It’s gratifying when you see others you may not expect to have a real interest in history to touch, walk and smell and imagine.

He is wrong on the Boiler pressure on the saturated side. it isn't 250 psi but 600, the sent thru the superheater where the temp is increased to 900 degrees to make it superheated. I served on USS Iowa from 1987 until 91 as a petty officer 1st class in #3 fireroom.

“The 16in gun come in a variety of flavors “ love it lol

You shows the bath tube, but did not tell why a tube is on a battle ship. Was installed when FDR was transported across the pacific for a meeting with the other Allied leaders

I served aboard Missouri and not the Iowa....but WOW, even all these years later going on this virtual Tour felt like going home. Everything rung with familiarity, a tuning fork down into the lizard part of my brain. Engineering and Broadway were my stomping grounds as well, the Chief did one heck of a job leading the camera through. Many times better than I could have attempted. Bravo, Chief.

Amazing...! Great video for all of us that love this ship and all his history.

Imagine fixing that gun trajectory computer 😅I'd say I'll have a go but i may be some time

I was on the New Jersey when the turrets blew up. We were in the middle of firing our guns also, quick end to that. Sad day

I wish you would have shown us the powder magazine and the shell magazine and loader

A very nice presentation ,thank you
And God bless ❤

Great video and great tour

You said a weight was put in the barrel to help push the practice round out. How was the weight reset UP so it could slide down again?

Big compliment, the Iowa is actually in excellent condition. They're doing a great job!

This is the best channel about warships

Where is the uss Iowa museum at?

My brother -in-law Jeff served on this ship, he was on turret 3 the fateful day the ship lost those men in turret 2. All his stories about the Iowa have amazed me for as long as I can remember. I feel honored even knowing someone who got to be on her and serve

I've watched this interview with a lot of interest and respect. I can't imagine how it was back in those days of WW2 in the heat of the battle on every room and on every deck of this BRILLIANT masterpiece. It is absolutely amazing how strong and top of the top quality product has been made by the AWESOME people back then. As he said : "the difference between 40s crewmen and 80s + 90s crewmen it is embarrassing". Back then, workers, engineers, crewmen and officers really put everything on the table : mind, heart, arms and life without blinking. Nowadays they put a damn laptop, welding robots and they ask rights and policy insurances.

Nice vidio but extremely disrespectful of the people who served on this historic ship to have a Coke Cola & a Dasani vending machines in plain view. Should be placed out of view. Hope these companies give you some blood money for advertising for them. I was in the Army but will always stick up for every military branch. I have watched well over a hundred vidios on the most decorated battleship during WW2 . The New Jersey.

What great introduction to Iowa's engineering spaces. Also to mess deck information. My navy service was on a WW II era LST so we had a much different environment. The only boiler on board was part of the system making potable water. Main power was two massive V12 diesels. As a Yeoman I made it to the main engine room once. Our armament was 8 40mm anti-aircraft guns. I have one dumb question. On our ship the wheel house had the engine order telegraph which was the primary means of communication of engine orders to the engine room. A phone talker backed up the mechanical device. The device was connected to a similar device in the engine room. When an engine order was sent from the wheelhouse to the engine room the engine room watch sent an acknowledgement back to the wheel house and the lee-helmsman let the bridge know that the order had been sent and acknowledged. On most ships that device is on the bridge. My question is where is the engine room end of that communication device on Iowa? I didn't see it or hear you mention it. Thank you. Sorry to be a pest, but I am curious.

Out of curiosity what happens to waste products including human and biological . When did the service make any changes to waste procedures ? How many bathrooms , toilets and different locations throughout a ship of that size and crew ? Great video , narration and camera work .

I love the video and the story behind it.

I want to go see this, my Brother served on this ship in the mid 70's,

This guy is incredible. Massive props to the crew who made this film, it is absolutely perfect and let's the ship, man, and his experience come alive. Excellent interview.

I was on the Wisconsin watching from the weather decks the aftermath of the Iowa explosion. Worst day ever imho

I want him to be my private tour guide if I ever visit that boat. Good job sir 🫡

What a beautifully preserved ship, looks like it’d be ready to go, just need to fuel up and find that zippo

Steam with no water in it is superheated air under pressure

Bardzo ciekawy film. Świetny komentarz przewodnika po pancerniku Iowa. Opis urządzeń i mechanizmów okrętu zrozumiały i przekazany w ciekawy sposób. Rozumiem dumę amerykanów że USA zrobili tak doskonały okręt wojenny. Może kiedyś odwiedzę jako turysta USA i postaram się odwiedzić ten wspaniały okręt.
A very interesting movie. Great commentary from the Battleship Iowa guide. The description of the ship's devices and mechanisms is understandable and presented in an interesting way. I understand the pride of Americans that the USA made such an excellent warship. Maybe one day I will visit the USA as a tourist and I will try to visit this wonderful ship.

Fascinating!

All through the 1980's the local lumber outfit in Los Angeles had a yard guy named Steve. Steve had pictures of Iowa in his wallet and showed them off. He was in love with this ship and now I know why. Steve, It's been 40 years and I still remember you !!

Seriuosly impressive! Glad shes been saved and lives on for future generations !

Thank you to the Crew for making this great documentary! I learned so much PBS! 😁👍👍

The Blue projectiles proper nomenclature is BL&P (Blind, Loaded & Plugged).

These rounds were not filled with concrete. They are typically filled with sand. This can be referenced in the Navy Gun Type Ammunition manual.

The narrator incorrectly names it.

USA!!!

Once the steam leaves the steam drum, it doesn’t gain more pressure going through the superheater, just removes all moisture from the steam

that looks exactly like the USS New Jersey

This guy is so incredibly knowledgeable. So glad to see he dedicated a part of his life to keep people educated on these older boats.

Great video

Instead of naming ships after politicians, we need to get back to naming them after the states and towns they are entrusted to protect!

Chief David Canfield gave a fantastic tour, and conveyed so much knowledge from first-hand ship’s company familiarity in a readily understandable way as to make this so very interesting and informative.

Thanks to IA PBS et al.

She is a beaut!

How does one see over the horizon?😮

My fellow Snipe

The amazing technology of the 1930's. A lot more advanced than you might think.

How did they resupply ammonium

And now its 2023, and sadly the best military fighting force in the world, has somehow been infiltrated by the blue haired woke and offended society. That scares me more than anything if you really think about that.

America should build a modern version of large Iowa class battle ship

I know golf balls were "shot" here!!! so where's the pool table?
