Ted....for " sea duty " [ vs some shorebased tours ] I was in light nuclear
attack squadrons in WestPac ]...with cruises on CVA Midway and
Shangrila....Panthers, Cougars and finally FJ-4s.
Resigned my commission after 10 years active duty as I thankfully foresaw
that I might have serious personal problems wearing a powder blue beret at
some future date...perhaps OK for some but not for me. ;-D>
At my age of 66....even 15 degrees is much too much.
