My dad was on a desroyer in WW II  and he use to tell me when they were in convoys and the sea was bad you could see the ship next to you on minute and not the next.    All I can say is WOW!!!

My father was in the Army Band during WWII, I remember one of his
stories about how he "puked his way to Europe on the troop ships" ...

North Atlantic, 1977.  I was on the USS Forrestal (aircraft carrier) in seas bigger than the ones in the video, the carrier just sliced through most of the waves, we chained the jets to the flight deck to keep them safe, the poor guys on the USS Niagara Falls who were along side of us and a couple of destroyers really had a rough time of it.  The destroyers would all but disappear under the waves then pop back up again.  Sure made me appreciate being on one of the biggest ships in the world!

My uncle Ted served on the USS Missouri as chief gunners mate during WW2, he told me about 3 days in a typhoon with seas so bad he could see the front 2 main front turrets disappear under the waves, then the next set the whole  ship would shake as the props lifted out of the water. He used to laugh about it, as he said, no one was immune to sea sickness on that trip. Not for me, could not handle  that.
