Walt- We USAF drivers didn't get any
briefing at all and we used to use the field optical landing system at
Navy Key West, absolute proof that anyone with half a brain can do it,
right? (G) BRBR

You know, Old Phart, I once considered going into the USN V12 program,
but then the thought of 6 months on a boat made me go USAF. I really
don't care for guys all that much. Women are softer and smell better,
etc. ;)

Nawwww-sailors(and aviators) belong on ships, ships belong at sea...

After 2 years flying exchange with the USAF(great guys but ohhh that chain of
command!!), I know I was in the right place in the USN..

Besides, some of the guys that flew in the USAF were kinda 'girly'...

Just kiddin'-I enjoyed my USAF squadronmates, the aircraft(F-4D) condition and
particularly standing tall before the Wing Commander for wearing brown boots,
coming into the break(overhead) too fast and too close, for having my sleeves
rolled up, that kinda thing.

Old Phart,
LOL I rememder being called on the carpet by some 0-6 at Eglin when I was
involved in a NMAC with some 1 star who had his head up his butt. I walked in
with my sleaves rolled up my callsign name tag so they had no iIdea what my
name or rank was and I had that oh so special aroma from 3 days in FL on det in
the same bag. I did the talking. I had the computer print out from a tracking
pod on the plane. I was so happy that I didn't die I figured the wost they
could do is call my skipper and complain for my insubordination. But they
didn't have a leg to stand on. It was actually fun for me.

Sparky
