Yes I am an ex Navy man and proud to say so. The Navy showed me what it takes to be a man. Also I like to say my hats off to all you that were still are. Let me add this, I extend my hand out to all others in the Forum from a new member.

Nope. Not ex-Navy, nor current.

Did you guys watch the PBS special titles "Carrier"? If so, and if you have Carrier experience, what did you think of it?
