Bubbleheads, got to love them. :) My roommate was one. We were sitting in the wardroom waiting to pull into port. There was a repetitive banging noise. He proudly stated that if he was on a sub, that sound would be the ballast/blah, blah, blah, going off. I said, well, you're not on a sub, we are on a carrier, and that sound is two sailors dragging a cruise box across the hangar bay. :)
 
Yup...
Started off as a Radioman, until they took my Sparks and gave me two flies circling a pile of $hit in the 90's. Then went from ETCS/SS to ENS as an LDO in 2006. Contrary to what some tried to tell me, that was NOT a promotion!

Sea tours on:
USS GEORGE BANCROFT (SSBN 643B)
USS PENNSYLVANIA (SSBN 735B)
USS MIAMI (SSN 755)
USS CHARLOTTE (SSN 766)
