Since I was in the United States Navy (and very proud of that service to my country) I am interested in who else may have served and/or is still serving in the military.  I believe there is more camaraderie between veterans no matter what service they served.  I do not mean to be nosy or meddlesome into your private life.   I was ust curious and though it might give us all more common ground..  If you feel it's too instrusive to ask and do not care to respond, that is fine with me and I certainly understand.  If you would care to respond, just follow the example below.  You may post it here or send me me a PM.  

Fish USN:  United States Navy 1968-1972  

I was an AMH-2 (E-5)  I was a member of VF-33 Fighter Squadron (Fighting Tarsiers) which was attached to the USS Independence CVA62  which was part of CAG 7 (Carrier Air Group 7th Fleet).  I  was  a hydrualic mechanic on the F4-J Phantom Jet Aircraft where we would troubleshoot the hyrdaulic systems if issues arose, remove and replace hydraulic components, repaired wing fuel cell leaks, performed hydraulic component repair and testing and would work on the flight deck as a trouble shooter pre-flighting the Phantoms as the taxied up to the catapults.  That part of the job was awesome.

Please note this is totally voluntary.  Thank you in advance for your consideration of my request.
