No offense DaveDave, but you said you scored an 84% and want to work on Nuclear weapons designs?
That is like your doctor telling you he was a B average student in college...
also its not nuclear weapons design, its maintaining the power plant of ships and subs.

but a B doctor is better then a C doctor.... and a B isnt bad
haha, I was just giving you crap, If you want to go into it, you should man!
One of my really good friends went into the Airforce as a mechanic, he has some crazy stories to tell about it. You will love it, especially working on Nukes!

I was a mechanic in the Air Force - and no, it wasn't on the Wright Brother's plane at Kittyhawk, so s t f u before either of you start. Oh yeah, good stories........

And if you're on land maintaining anything nuclear, do us all a favor and make sure it's a foreign land.

Just think, I can see it already in PPC - "FS/FT: Uranium, New in Box. Swap for Hotchkis Sways."

No dave, steve is right it wasn't on the Wright Brother's plane... although steve did mention the first car he owned was a model T, he said he bought it brand new in 1908!

Ha ha ha. It was actually a Stanley Steamer in 1902. Look that one up.

You going to Green Hill Ted, or just downtown? I don't know what I'm doing yet, depends on the weather. I usually park on the street in front of Shabooms or the Centrum, right across the street from Uno's for the downtown part. There are spaces, if you get there early enough, and the cruise is pretty much non-stop up and down that street.
I'll call you when I go.

They say a person changes careers 6-7 times in their lifetime. I guess you are trying to get them all at the beginning of your life... goodluck with the Navy.
