I only ask because a lot of the people I know that were SF went in open general, or washed out of Electronic Principles (guess they had been having trouble getting enough SF folks).

Nope

Yes, 6 yrs Navy

Didn't care for it while I was in, but it was a great experience for me.
I landed my current job because of the training I received.

I served in the Mishmar Hagevul or Magav (Israeli Border Police). It was a life-changing experience to put it mildly.

U.S. Navy onboard the USS Tarawa (LHA-1). It is a helicopter carrier full of Marines. We were like their taxi service 😉
