Those are life skills. I don’t know if I could recommend to a young person now to go in (hard to hear myself say that) but I have always thought I got far more out of the Navy than they got out of me.
So...you’re partially color blind and got into television repair after getting out? LOL, did you have to farm out the color issues???
As far as the navy, it was probably a draw but I survived and got an honorable with preferred re-entry.
I didn’t work on TVs. Apologies for any misunderstanding there.
I started out as a studio operator and later became a videotape operator/first line editor, signals and quality analysis, and unofficial IT person among othe things.. I found I had a knack for technology.
The sad part was that my highest proficiency on the Asvab was electricity and electronics.
