Yea, did the whole tank thing. When I joined, I was 11B, but I had signed up as a tanker. A recuiters game I guess. Got everything staighten out, did IAT as a grunt,spent a little over three years in Germany as a OJT'd tanker in the 70's and some time in the Colorado for the remainder of my hitch.
Oldest daughter was a shooter on #4 waist catapult on the USS George Washington, she met her husband there. He has since went from fleet to a Seabee getting ready for his second tour to the sandpit.
