SHHHHHHHH!  My dad was a Lt. Commander in the USN!   ???

HA!!  Here's my family military rankings:

Dad - Commander, USN, ret (46 - 71)
Oldest Sister - Lieutenant, USN (out) (87 - 92)
Brother-in-law #1 - Former HT1(SW), Currently Commander, JAG, USN (85ish - Present)
Middle Sister - Commander, USN (87 - 91, 93 - present)
Brother-in-law #2 - Lieutenant, USN (Who knows...)

Me - FC1(SW), USN, Honorable Discharge 01 Feb 2002 (1989 - 2002)

Needless to say, family dinners when I was still in were interesting... they thought that I was their mess crank!  At least until I made them some "special" coffee!   :x!

USAF all the way baby...you have to be smart to pick the AirForce

1)best bases
2)best facilities, food, etc.
3)best looking women overall
4)best career opportunities after the military, unless you want to work for a tank company! :/O :/O

I was a Navy medic during the Vietnam War, and stationed with the 2nd Marine Air Wing. The medics out in the field with the Marines are actually sailors. They wear Marine Corps uniforms with Navy stripes.

One of the Marines in the statue of the Marines raising the flag on Iwo Jima is actual a Navy medic.

Navy Corpsman here!
But please don't call me a medic. 
It's up to you if you want to go Marine Corps regs and wear the USMC charlies, but we wear cammies with our ranks and US NAVY on the pocket.

I've spent most of my career with the marines only been with the navy for 3 years out of 15 and I was on a ship called a gator frieghter to carry the marines.

I'm over 6 ft tall, so by rights I had to be a Coastie.  Besides I like their search and rescue mission. 

If I could do it all over again, I would have loved to be a SEAL.
