An Inside Look: Life On The U.S.S. Dwight D. Eisenhower

BOSTON (CBS) - WBZ NewsRadio 1030 morning anchor Joe Mathieu is spending 24 hours on board the U.S.S. Dwight D. Eisenhower this week for a rare look at life on the aircraft carrier.

The Eisenhower, which is currently about 100 miles off the coast of Virginia, is getting ready for deployment to an undisclosed location.

The nuclear powered aircraft carrier is so big Mathieu was told that he should expect to walk about ten miles during his 24 hours on board.

Mathieu spoke to WBZ producer Chris Fama Monday as he experienced this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
