If the Navy chooses to accept it, USS George H.W. Bush (CVN-77) could get its big screen debut in Tom Cruise's next “Mission Impossible” movie.

A 1993 recruiting survey found 24 percent of recruits had seen “Top Gun,” and found brochures were the most successful recruiting tool. The Navy has hailed “Top Gun” as a recruiting instrument that encouraged more to enlist in the Navy. It is unclear if “Mission Impossible” will call the aircraft by a different name or have it in a different location in the film. But while the Navy may believe Top Gun is a recruiting tool, history shows less of an effect. “Every minute they spent with the crew of our mighty warship paid dividends toward our crew’s morale from the top-down,” Bush commanding officer Capt.

Opinion | Tom Cruise and Me (The New York Times)

How the ageless actor has held my — and our — unbroken attention for a lifetime.

[a producer of “Maverick,”](https://www.oscars.org/oscars/ceremonies/2023) to pivot with the times. I know we’re talking about a public persona more than a person, but the insane kind of certainty he radiates is reassuring and so different from the internalized terror and second-guessing that fiction writers like me feed on. I think it’s more the internal youthfulness than the external that keeps me watching, that solid self-assurance — or at least the fantasy of it — that Mr. In charge of the situation. He is a distinguished writer in residence at New York University and can be found on Instagram [@nenglander](https://www.instagram.com/nenglander/?hl=en). So many of those Cruise films felt so much like events that I can still remember the theaters in which I saw them, from “The Outsiders” on a field trip at 13 to “Born on the Fourth of July” when I was newly 20 and traveling abroad. This was the expectation of what growing up and growing older would be. The enemy has no flag, no ethnicity, no religion or style of governance. I’m saying he reflects a life well lived in the company of gravity and pastrami, with a bottle of sunscreen nowhere within reach. Cruise offers a much more heartening way to see oneself mirrored onscreen than most of the hyper-realistic Hollywood representations of aging with which I was raised. Try Walter Matthau in “The Taking of Pelham 123.” I’m not saying Matthau wasn’t a dreamboat. Settling on the bigger screen, I clicked on “Mission: Impossible — Rogue Nation” to find Tom Cruise dangling by his fingertips from a Russian cargo plane while sporting a business casual suit.
