Not today's USN but these are IMO the two greatest USN officers that ever lived.

You don't see a lot of women divers in the USN. Good for her if she can hack it. IMHO a Navy diver is one of the hardest ratings out there.

So true.. Ya' know I never really liked the Special Warfare sailors. SEALs, EOD, Aircrewmen, Divers ..ETC..ETC... To arrogant for me. But you know what? They have to be that way to do their job.

Ah ha! I found out what happened to Boxer. She did visit Israel. The ship must have had tours to different parts of Israel.
