Cool

Sorry OldPinger, but while Sir might not live in a trench, neither do the Junglies!

Pinger - if you want to spend your life deployed on a CVS, moving from one point hovering over the water to another point hovering over some different water for three hours, often at night and then having to sit in the port wait for 20 minutes because thereŽs a SHAR within 100 miles of the carrier who might needs to get back on the deck before you!

Lynx - Night flying over the sea, 100 ft, 120 kts, no NVG, no thanks!!!

SHAR - Great job if youŽve got a brain the size of a planet and enjoy working like whirling dervish from the moment you get airborne

Bagger - Look at me, IŽm a big, slow radar target!

Junglie - Low level on NVG, troop inserts, gun moves, flying under wires, Norway...(OK, IŽll take the hit for Ocean beore anyone else mentions it)

How many more reasons do you need??
