Nukes are a strange breed for sure - failing college calculus was probably the smartest thing I ever did. When I was commissioned they were strong arming ensigns to be surface nukes.

Judging from your age we went in at about the some time...1980-84 for me.

I was unable to go subs 'cause of my deaf ear so they pushed me for carrier duty. No thanks.
