rehmwa 2 #198 October 27, 2005 QuoteJust Selected for AST Advanced Statistical Training? Don't worry your AF long hair cuts over the brainy stuff, the Navy can handle the smart stuff like they always do. That and the really tough flying too. Real simple - The Navy handles the brainy stuff, flies the planes, deliver the soldiers. The Army can fly the choppers, storm the beaches, fight the battles. Seals and Rangers can handle special ops. We sell the Marines for a small profit, use the AF for shows and PR and as doubles for Hollywood movies and turn a profit there. Anything left of the AF we can give to NASA. Works well and cuts overall military costs - everyone can appreciate that. ... Driving is a one dimensional activity - a monkey can do it - being proud of your driving abilities is like being proud of being able to put on pants Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AltitudeAddict 0 #200 October 27, 2005 Naval Intelligence "A" School (NMITC) in Dam Neck, VA. Trained there for 7 months mornings and nights under one of the NAVSPECDEVWARGRU guys before going to BUD/S and getting hurt. Spent the next year in the Naval Hospital Oaknoll (Oakland) until honor. discharge for injuries. The people made every crappy detail and duty in the 3 years worth it and then some. Even made me appreciate my brother Airborne Ranger (1/75th C co.) A LOT MORE! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
