I mean they let airplanes land on nuclear reactors. They don't go boom.



I grew up next to that ^^^^

I agree, I have spent plenty of time living on a carrier and my tail is rarely itchy. And I attribute that to the anthrax shots.

2 more in the 3rd, 3 more in the 4Q.
It was 6/9/5/5 through 2020

Now it's 6/5/7/7, assuming we still get 25 jets.

The more time you spend off the boat the more itchy you get, amirite?

Well I never really thought of it that way, but now that you mention I would have to say yes. I think you are on to something here.

And don't forget, walking aboard the ship made you two things.....hungry and tired. Lastly, 8 hours of sleep each day was required, with whatever you could at night being extra ;-)
