We'll let you keep the 1/3 of the earths surface that is covered by land, we'll take the 2/3's that is covered by water!

Billy Mitchell is alive and well!

Sadly British politicians believed the RAF when they said something similar, and they scrapped the fleet carriers in the 1970's. Cue the Falklands Conflict and a shore based air force unable to cover the amphibious fleet from 8,000 miles away.

Ed, I'll raise from 2/3 to 71% of the earths surface being water.

Get the fly boys out of their hotels and send them to sea - anyone can fly from an airfield that's not pitching or rolling.

Awe man how'd you get into seabees I heard there is a helluva waiting list to get to Gulfport! Reason I considered the Navy was because I had a friend who had just seperated as a seabee.. oh well, still glad I joined



p.s. DONT eat the eggs at great lakes, AND get ready for the 'big' shot from behind from medical, and i dont mean in the butt..
