    My favorite duty station was the Charleston Naval Station hands down. EODMU SIX used to be there. Unfortunately, I was gone most of the time I had orders there, but you just can't beat Chuck Town.

    Army kept it boring for me. I was 17 when I graduated AIT, so while everyone else in my class went to Korea, I went to North Carolina. While there I started having seizures. Found out I'm epileptic. Medically Retired from Bragg at 20.

    Bummer on the epilepsy! I have a couple co-workers that have epilepsy. They seem to have a pretty good handle on it. One of them even has a service dog that can detect when she's about to have a seizure.

    I left the Navy due to my failing my Flight Physical Exam. I was having vision degradation (hereditary). The Navy offered to "retread" me as a Naval Flight Officer (Navigator, Tactical Coordinator, Radar Intercept Officer, etc). I said "no thanks" and left the service.
    My civilian Flight Surgeon is also an Ophthalmologist. He performed a procedure called a Radial Keratotomy, which restored my vision to 20/20 uncorrected. Lasik did not exist, back then.
    Oh, to be 20 years younger! LOL If iLasik was a "thing" back when I was in the USN, I'd have stayed in as a career, retired; then pivoted to the airlines.
