My father at 17 served as a Mechinist Mate on a DE from 44 through 1945. His memories were reduced to powdwered eggs and steel so hot that he couldn't breath. He never saw the dozens of Kamakazies his DE faced as a radar picket from his station in the Engine Room.
BTW, if you ever saw my Dad trying to repair a lawn mower you'd agree the military can't properly assign men by speciality worth a damn.
