Since the thread's dragged out a bit now, I wonder if I've got the
fewest of anyone here who has any traps at all, with two (S2, on the
Lex, early '70s).


Didn't you have to CQ in flight training? When I was at Pensacola,
1049-50, the last phase in Basic (before going to Corpus for
Advanced), was CQ, which ended with 6 traps aboard USS Wright or
Cabot. That was in SNJs, in those days.

Damn! That's the second time I've done that in just a couple of
weeks!

But with a name like Norris, derived (I'm told) from "Norseman," I
suppose I would have been on Bill's side, not Harry's.

Naval Aviators did. I was a PAO (and a civilian pilot.)
