PJ huh, my respect for you just climbed! Those guys are impressive! I didn't know being married was a dis-qualifier, but it sort of makes sense. My daughter, who is active duty AF, had students who were PJ's. She was telling me that their life expectancy in battle was like 20 mins or something obscene.
I had some friends in Command Post at Loring and they didn't get to leave the building. Your job did sound dull. My friends seemed to live on antacids from their job. I didn't know what they did, tho. You know, they could have told me, but then they'd have to kill me...

Even though the equipment has been replaced and modernized 10 times, the stuff I worked on is still classified.
PJ's can be married. But during the summer of 1972 the USAF was saying no to married guys due to the high attrition rates. I thought about fighting it but my TI said, "Airman, consider it a gift to your wife, your life." I sometimes wish I had fought it but you can't change the past.
