How many military/ex-military people on the board?

[DivePartner1]

Hmmm. Depends on the years of service. Since it's past I'd say "Naval Weapons something, something Intelligence." Technical and Precision? Don't tell us. I probably have that wrong but I'll find out.

(ok, I'm a Navy brat in a Company town). (and someone said they're a 'navy pilot'???? Not a NAVAL AVIATOR???? What color are you wings?)

Hum does living with an 11 bravo and having to deal with the family first (hahaha) Army for going on 12 years count?On a side note I'm one of the only females I know who has ever got to play with a 60 and blow about 10k rounds (blanks).See what happens when they put your hubby in the arms room and the Capt oks you playing with 1 of the 3 going up for a family run day from the roof of the building they run by and yours is the only one that doesn't go down.LOL I don't know who was having more FUN me or the guys running me the rounds.Good thing we never got caught not to sure he know he was oking more than me going on the roof.They (Capts)can be so clueless about somethings.

Jen who misses the 60s they replaced them!

CrazyC...I spent 3 years at Kadena with the 33rd ARRS, before they were the 17th SOS. I learned to dive there as well. I loved doing Bolo Point from a boat. Is the diving still as good as it was in the early 80's?

pentiumchick: You deserve at least a very large medal for living with an eleven bush for 12 years. Congraulations and thanks.

Don't know of you Captain is really clueless or not, but I always found it a good idea to not mention many of the things I knew.

cheers
