I was in '75-'79, Carter's Navy. My best friend and I ran out division (OI) a lot like M*A*S*H. We got away with so many shenanigans we should have spent most of our time in the brig! I learned then that as long as one was good at their job they could get away with almost anything! I got out for a few reasons; Carter for one, being on the USS Neverport for another and the Navy telling me that my pay was commensurate with civilian pay (my rate & NEC corresponded to Air Traffic Controller), which it didn't! On my last eval our department head recommended me for all the Navy's officer programs. No offense to those that went the officer route, but I almost burst out laughing. The last thing I was/am is officer material. I did get the best career, ever.
