Very insightful post, OJ, but waaaay back in the oooold days, both
Navy and Marine pilots wore green.

Although I wore the more attractive shade of green, I thought the Navy
greens were damn good-looking, too. I gather a lot of Navy guys were
unhappy when they were phased out.


Why did you assume I was speaking uniforms, with that "green"?


Gee, I guess when you talk 'in riddles' maybe your intended meaning can get
lost.






While "blue" dollars pay for a lot of the USMC aviation toys, our
NAs/NFOs are *paid* with "green" dollars.

[Does anybody in the US military still get paid with checks [much
less {gasp!!!!!!} cash] nowadays, or has DoD gone mandatory
direct deposit? Saw on a recent cable show on carriers that all
their crew's cash comes out of an ATM.]
