Best of luck and for God's sake don't join the RN!!
However whenever I recounted some of the cheeky flying I had done from the boat (in my oily, smelly, shaky, old helicopter) and some of the places I have been fortunate enough to have been, he always said with a twinge of regret how great it must be (flying in the Navy, from a ship etc).
From the logbook thread:
You'll never guess who I was flying with
36 trips, 2 types, 61:30. Shortest 0:10, longest 5:25.
Here goes:
Torpedo drop
Depth charge drop

Helo Delivery Supply (HDS)
Jumpex (Sub-killer)
Surface Search
Deck Landing practice (DLP)
General flying practice (GFP)

Detect-Identify-Destroy (DIDTACS)
4.5 inch flare drops
Naval Gunfire Support (NGS)
VIPTAX(Taxi-VIP)
CASEVAC
Load Lifting
Winching
Dead Reckoning sea navigation(Dalton/Protractor/pencil/dividers/rubber)
Beach Assault - with troops!

Test flights -up to 12000 feet.
And it's all still going on now ....
