I was in the navy for 8 years myself from 1982 to 1990, 4 years on a Submarine Tender, USS Proteus AS-19, and the USS David R. Ray DD-971, A Spruance Class Destroyer, and a couple of weeks on the USS Nimitz CVN-68, which was just way too big of a ship for me! The Destroyer was the funnest, and the Proteus, was mostly in port all the time so we could work on subs. My 4 years shore duty was at NAS Miramar, VAW-110, an E2C Radar Squadron and Cargo Planes. I wrote a book called "Navy Fun".
