Ha ha.... how appropriate. No wonder you like to keep a low profile.
Anyway, try not to worry too much about the lingo as you must be new. 'Fleet' is a generic term used by about 99% of the EK pilots along with other terms such as 'training' and 'accomodation' and 'HR'. Non of these terms are for the sole use of ex naval employees although there are definate elements of semen within some departments.
You'll get the hang of it when you've been around a few months.

Apologies for spelling, that should read 'seamen'. My mistake!
