PBS Series Examines Life Aboard an Aircraft Carrier
When you think about an aircraft carrier, it's hard to not immediately think about the pulse-racing jobs of Top Gun pilots or the ship's admiral. But what about the other people on board who keep the carrier running, like the cooks, the navigators and those in charge of arming and de-arming the jets?
Those people are the focus of a new documentary series Carrier, which premiers Sunday on PBS. Producer Jeff Dupre and the ship's Master Chief Christopher Penton talk with Andrea Seabrook.
