I spent several years in the Air Force and I wanted to get the information about Military career fields out to people. The Air Force gave me a great start to my life. My son is 17 and he was asking me about the military so I put this together. I hope people enjoy it. As far as making money it cost a ME money to have this printed. We have ordered sever copies to GIVE to recruiting offices. It is a thanks to to the Military. As to the time spent to get this off the ground over 600 hours and over $3,000. I am not going to make money on this project. It was not about the money. Thanks Vince I certainly realize that vanity publishing requires payment from the author. My original post was not about the money either. The preview portion available online didn't seem to offer anything that wasn't already available from official sources. Meanwhile, statements like "piloting a nuclear submarine" are sure to attract the attention of the detail-oriented. In the context of the sea services and military ships, "piloting" has a very specific meaning, and it most often means that a civilian with detailed knowlege of a particular waterway, roadstead or port/harbor is directing the movements of the ship during its transit in or out of that area. Playing loose with naval terminology simply makes me wonder about other lapses in attention to detail, that's all... |
