That's some short stretch. I always worked on the flight line in the Navy. The first 2 1/2 years as a plane captain on E-2 Hawkeye early warning planes. They were the Navy's version of the Air Forces AWAC. The last 1 1/2 years I was in charge of ground support equiptment at a helo squadron and never went to sea again. The only thing I missed about going to sea was that hazardous duty pay for working on the flight deck. In the late 60's an extra 55$ a month was big money if you were in the militarty. Do you qualify for a pension? I don't know what I would do if I couldn't get my perscriptions from the VA. "Doc"

Doc, Well I did a short stretch in the Air Force from September 1966 until January 1987, then I gave it up . Hal AMC74HORNET@xxxx wrote: What branch of the service were you in Hal? I did 4 years in the Navy. I left my brand new 65 440 Twin Stick American home when I joined. In 67 when I was in the Med we stopped in Athens and I saw a 65 American 4 door taxi at the Acpopolus, it made me home sick. Then the Arab/Isreally war started and the Greeks over through the king so I didn't have time to be home sick anymore. I was to busy working on my plane on the flight deck 12 hours a day for 30 days straight at time. Some times we were on 5 min. alert and slept in the plane.
