Sorry airborne ESM/ECM type. Lotta respect for the folks below though.
I toured the Dallas (a 688 boat) and while it would be roomy compared
to what you all served on it was a bit tiny by my standards. Also
toured the Georgia (the Trident boat) and have to say the crew had more
room that we did on a Nimitz class carrier, although no windows

Prowler traps on Kennedy, Indy, Nimitz, Lincoln, TR, Stennis, Kitty
Hawk, America, Saratoga, Truman, Connie and Ike.

After I'd spent a year in Taiwan and was up for rotation they asked me if I
wanted to fly. Told them I thought it was way the hell too risky. They
offered to send me to SERE school in the PI if I'd fly, but I went to New
London instead. Couldn't see much point in getting involved in something
where they needed to teach me survival, evasion, resistance, and escape
techniques.

But the contingency orders (as I remember, I had to sign them) before our
trips turned out to be even more, er, "interesting."

Come to think of it, SERE might be a good course for a graduate business
curriculum.
