AZCA,
Hiya AZCA. Navy would be a good choice. You may find out that you really enjoy serving your country on the sea. Hope you don't get sea sick though. They still have a Merchant Marines. My dad was in that before he got drafted for Korea.

Jeephrog:
Ya, roger that.

Is that the one where the CH46E was like upside down, hanging off the side of the ship, with a crew member from the 46 hanging over the salt water from his gunner's belt? If so, there is a picture of that crash in the USMC HRST Masters Course book (2-1-24). The caption under the picture reads: Gunner's belts do work. I think the guy hanging from the 46 is David Stevenson. Did you know him?

HA HA don't think just cuz I live in AZ that I get sea sick. I've been on plenty of boats on the ocean (most of wich for more than just an afternoon) and I've never gotten sea sick. My brother.....well that's a different story.
