Envious much, Damian?
OK, this is me turning green with serious envy.
Fuzzybear Lioness, a U.S. milblogger who frequents John Donovan's place as I do, just had a day on USS John C. Stennis, a Nimitz-class aircraft carrier. Not in port, mind you, but at sea.
I'm happy for her. No, really...

LOL!
You have my sympathies--were our situations reversed, that's exactly how I'd be feeling.
Until a few months ago, I honestly never thought it was even remotely possible for me to have such an opportunity, so you never know... ;)
Envy, indeed! :-)
A day at sea on a nuke carrier would be pretty awesome. Also, a day at sea on a new Virginia class nuclear sub would be equally cool.
As far as things aerial, a flight in the back seat of an F-18 Hornet would be awesome. (Dunno about a carrier landing though, esp at night. I think I'd be one of those who'd win one of those Order of the Wet Diaper awards. :-)
For impressive things Army, a day spend driving around in a Leopard or Abrams tank would also be quite an experience. (Can I fire the main gun? Huh? Can I? Can I? :-)
How about it, fellow Torch surfers? What would top your wish lists for a military adventure?
Forget the tank, Dave, we have rules ...
Cheers
