because I missed the faith segment.  Maybe PBS will rebroadcast the series.  During my entire 20 year naval career (1976-96), I never observed or experienced any religious pressure, intolerance, etc.  It's possible that the evangelicals have changed things since my time.  My gut feeling, based on things I've read in the last few years, is that it's not so much in the Navy, but it's more prevalent in the Air Force.

From my experience as a catapult officer on USS Enterprise, 1984-1986, the show did an excellent job of showing the lives of our sailors.  Much has changed in the last 20+ years.  There were no women on carriers back in the day.  There were no phone calls home from the middle of the Persian Gulf.  Email hadn't made it into the fleet back then.  But the daily grind of life aboard a carrier is otherwise unchanged.  The kids who routinely work 18 hour days are the most underpaid public servants this country will ever know.  I'm proud to have served with them.
