What is the big deal? A "fighter pilot" is simply another military

Wow! Have you been subscribing to the Tarver school of revisionist
definitions?

Of course, we're "super men". Just ask us.

Need I mention that your Navy OOD has the assistance of anywhere from
several hundred to several thousand well trained folks to help him/her
manage those systems and fulfill that responsibility?

Let's not get into inter-service rivalries. Folks do their jobs
(usually). I think Art has often said that!
