    Air Force is a great way. Don't get abused like us Navy dogs.

    My wife's dad and bro were Navy, both still alive.... my dad was military, but I barely knew him.
    I'm trying to give her the easy way out, if she's gonna play with the big kids. . . . yet in a way, it scares me.

    Colorblindness ruled me out, and they didn't have the "cool contacts" to correct it, or whatever they do.. back in the day. I barely pass, for DOT. At least the BP and the pumper and veins are still good. ;(

    The Air Force had DELUXE accommodations compared to what had. Plus they aren't going to put you on a floating prison / asylum for up to 6 months at a time, or longer!!!!!


    This was right about 30 years ago. That's my name on the nose wheel well. Aye, now that's a Tomcat lol ---

    I worked as a "checker" for awhile; green or white jersey with white checker board vest. Stood between bow catapults during launch.
