How 5,000 Sailors Eat, Sleep & Work on a $13BN Aircraft Carrier for 6 Months

5,000 sailors live on this aircraft carrier for six months straight. No days off. No going home. Just endless ocean and a floating city that never sleeps. The quarters are so cramped that sailors share beds in rotating shifts. The kitchen serves 18,000 meals a day. And the work? Most crew members pull 18-hour shifts in conditions that would break civilians in a week.
