You must have had your hands full as a Surface Warfare Officer. I was on the Indy in 1974/1975 with the Air Wing. At the time I was an Airman in HS-5. They stuck all the airedales in a bearthing area right below the arresting gear as punishment for not being ship's company. I was so young it was all fine with me. o7
LOL - serves a brown shoe right. Only time I got to interact with the airwing was when I went to eat midrats, mess was swarming with ya. ;-p
