Granted the Navy helo bubba's do some cool stuff too (and have some stellar toys), 7 hours of Starboard-D is not one of them.
Or ship replenishment
Each service has their specialities - but for the majority of the missions, I'll have to say that I think the Army and the Marines probably have a better chance of doing more of the **interesting** missions.
They are far and few between in my experience, but there are some people who haven't found satisfaction in their assigned (sometimes chosen) communities. For the most part, even if it isn't what you chose, it has been my expereince that most people end of LOVING their platform, the people, and the mission.
