Myself being former Navy, I will avoid the temptation to ask which golf courses you were stationed at. :)
LOL! Sorry to disappoint but I was a SAC trained killer for 9 of my 20 years. Two legs of the nuclear triad didn’t lend itself to the fighter pilot mentality of the rest of the AF. The whole “Deadly Force is Authorized” thing tended to focus the attention. It was after nukes were turned over to fighter pilots at the end of the Cold War that they started accidentally flying them from one base to another, etc. That’s the main reason nukes were taken back away from the fighter pilots. You need checklist-every-time guys when nukes are involved. Not seat-of-the-pants fighter pilots.
You’ll get a kick out of the fact I was invited to participate in a Chief’s Initiation while stationed overseas. I was in a joint command and one female in the command was selected for promotion to CPO. They invited me and an AF guy from the embassy who had also just made E-7 to participate so all the other chiefs wouldn’t just concentrate on her. Interesting month-long experience. I also attended a Navy school at Newport. Also interesting. Got to go aboard the Iowa when she was on a port call in Europe while I was over there, (before the explosion, of course). The Iowa’s JAG had a battle station in the CIC and he showed it to us. Impressive ship.
