True, but the guy that lovingly belts the pilot in and pats him on the head before he goes to rain death on the enemy is an E-2 or E-3 in the Navy. Or used to be. Things may have changed since my day.
Umm...I don’t want to know about ‘the guy who lovingly belts the pilot in’.
Maybe it was because I was an EWO/WSO, but I always strapped myself in!
Although there was a gal in life support in Prowlers, who could adjust my G-suit anytime she wanted...
