Interesting fact: The “Corpsman O’Brian” who attended to Capt Phillips in that AWESOME final scene, was actually a real medic Danielle Albert bc they wanted it to be as authentic as possible. She had never acted before. They told her to treat Tom as if he were an actual patient that had been brought in for a regular military exercise. She had such a calming demeanor and you’re right Tom Hanks was extraordinary in that scene!! I cry each time I watch it. I think it’s one of his best performances. This movie is indeed intense. Thanks again for watching. I bet that’s one you won’t forget. 😉 👍🏼That was AWESOME!

I mentioned a very watered down version of this to James in a private chat. I'm SO excited you put all these wonderful facts and details. I love the background info.

You asked what the pirates were eating. It is a leafy plant called "khat", and they were not eating it, they were chewing the leaves. After a while they spit out the leaf and begin chewing another one. It is used as a stimulant drug like amphetamine. You previously heard it mentioned in "Black Hawk Down", which also took place in Somalia. It is illegal as a Schedule I drug in the US. In parts of the US with a significant Somali population (like in MN), khat trafficking is a law enforcement problem like other drugs. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Khat

RIB = Rigid-hull Inflatable Boat they appear a lot in movies and TV shows, used by police, life guards, Coast Guard, Special Forces, etc.. You have probably also seen them in real life on cruise ships, where they are used to ferry harbor pilots to and from the ship. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rigid_inflatable_boat

The ships: The first Navy ship to arrive, Bainbridge was a destroyer (DDG). The second, Halyburton, was a frigate (FFG). These are the smallest ocean-going surface combatants in the Navy. The flat-top ship (USS Boxer) was a helicopter-carrying amphibious assault dock (LHD), not a true carrier. It is less than 1/2 the size of an US fleet carrier. It carries helicopters and STOVL fighters, has a well deck in the rear for launching landing craft, and carries 1500+ marines. The Somalis were screwed as soon as it showed up. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wasp-class_amphibious_assault_ship
