This DVD contains the actual, uncut footage that was filmed by a crewman aboard the ship from 1972-74. A fantastic look into cruiser life aboard a destroyer at sea. -Very unique, never before seen footage

Begins in San Francisco, with the ship heading to sea.

Very cool and interesting footage of the McCain retrieving a drone from the ocean. Very detailed footage.

Liberty scenes.

Great shots of life aboard the McCain. Just a lot of neat stuff here.

Great UNREP footage, including the Bosun’s Chair. Also scenes of a SH-3D Sea King helicopter bring a VIP to the ship, who gives a speech, and then leaves aboard the Sea King.

Scenes that can only be Midway Island: The Gooney Birds are a giveaway!! Anyone who sailed in McCain will enjoy this DVD.

Produced by GRS Videos (TM). GRS Videos is dedicated to the preservation of Naval Aviation film footage. This passion began when the son of a recently deceased Korean War veteran told me how he had thrown away all of those "old 8mm films of planes flying off of a ship". Yes, I cried. Our heritage MUST be preserved. As a veteran of Naval Aviation, I have a strong interest in ensuring that our stories are not forgotten. If you have footage (16mm, 8mm, VHS, Super 8, Beta, or Digital) contact me at PLAT_Collector@verizon.net. I will also gladly trade any footage I have for new footage (any format). So, if I have Naval Aviation footage you want, and you have something I do not have, contact me and I am confident we can work something out. I am always looking for new PLAT mishaps and home movies/video of carrier operations and life on carriers. All proceeds go into obtaining and preserving more Naval Aviation footage. Gary R. Schreffler served on USS Midway (with HS-12) from 1984-1991.
