I looked it up - the deck of the Lincoln is 134 feet up. Ker-splash!

134 feet up and apparently nobody sweeps and mops the deck anymore. That soldier has some soot covered feet! Looks like fun.

Oh, I am sure it is VERY carefully swept. Jet engines hate to eat dirt. But it's certainly not clean. OTOH, that may be the state of the inside of his fireproof socks - you can't wash them very often....

yeah, I was joking. I'm quite sure it's as clean as an aircraft carriers deck can possibly be.
