When I went away... My life changed suddenly!!!

Boot camp...

"A" School...

Deployment...

Before I knew it, I was no longer the same kid who had graduated high school just the year before...

Most everyone else's life went on as usual... Day to day.

When I went away... I had to learn how to survive.

At sea...

On the flight deck...

With no outside help...

Most everyone else had to deal with their life's changes... Day to day.

I learned a lot when I went away... About surviving, about carrier life, about other cultures. All firsthand.

When I came home... I had to learn how to survive again.

Day to day...
