Carriers, simply because I have a love for aviation. And even though I'd be in the navy, aviation would still be a way of life.

Torvald Von Mansee · 03-16-08, 07:02 AM

Due to some physical maladies, I cannot join any military. So, there.

Kapitan_Phillips · 03-16-08, 08:04 AM

Probably couldnt due to my height, but SSBNs as a Master Chief

I would have to be on an aircraft carrier, that way I can be at sea but still be working round my first love that is aircraft.

I did join the navy, and I did ask for a destroyer, so I couldn't vote any differently. I think I was lucky--due to the time and place (San Diego, 1970) I served on one that was actually built during the war.
