LittleChief, I would know about all that rock and roll stuff. I was on carriers my whole career. Those things don't move much unless it is really nasty out. Yes, I have seen water breaking over the bow (yes, on a carrier), but I can count those days on my fingers.
DT, I would imagine most military people don't consider themselves heroes, but if I were standing with the President (or any other human) and they came under fire, I would shield them as best I could. It is not that I am a hero, but I don't think my life is any more (or any less) precious than theirs. I know what I have done with my life and would be satisfied if my story were to close today. I don't know that the other person has achieved their purpose yet. (Especially the President!)

What's a DORM??
ORIGINAL: Paul L Mohr
I'll tell you what I don't miss, working 14 hours then going back to the dorm to crawl into bed and having a hundred or so F-4 fighter jets take off while I'm trying to go to sleep
. Especially when they come off the runway and bank right infront of my dorm!
If I had it to do over again though I would have tried harder to stay in. I would be about ready to retire right now vrs being flat broke and in a job I don't know if I will have next year. I was young and stupid though, and I had just got married and had a kid on the way. I didn't think it would be a very good life for a family.

Uh,a dorm is what we used to call a barracks

Very true my friend, yet we consider everyone else who's served a true hero. Especially someone with a Purple Heart, Silver Star, Three Bronze Stars, and an Army Com.
