O.Okie....not up on my Navy lingo..what's Unrestricted Naval Aviator???....FLEM Unrestricted = We can fly both fixed wing or rotary wing. Restricted aviators can only fly fixed wing. I have NEVER heard that expression/rating , then again I only did 30...jorge Restricted or unrestricted only applies to Naval Aviators. I only did 27.

I decided I didn't like being in the navy after only 24 years. You must be a slow learner.

USN.........HM3..........1962-1968. Dominican Republic 1964-1965 makes me a vet. So doesn't serving during Viet Nam. I was one of the lucky ones that never went ashore in Nan. My hat is off to all those that did. Stationed out of Little Creek, Va. Spent most of my time attached to the fleet Marines. At first I thought being a swabby chancre mechanic would be a nightmare. But the sea going bellhops treated me like a king. Thank God for the US Marines. ![[Linked Image]](http://i131.photobucket.com/albums/p313/longbeardking/APA-228.jpg) This was home for most of my time. ![[Linked Image]](http://i131.photobucket.com/albums/p313/longbeardking/USS_Rockbridge_APA-228.jpg)

I am very thankful to know such fine men. My greatest regards to one and all who took the oath and protected our freedom. I did not serve, but am very proud of my father who marched across Europe under General Patton. Dad finished as a Sgt. 1st Class with two Purple Hearts and every campaign ribbon Patton's men earned.
