A rigger cool!
After all the stuff the riggers did for us (they don't just do chutes) I had to buy a sewing machine after I got out cause I was too used to "we need this on this pack" mentality. Now I modify just about every piece of gear I buy. Burned up my first machine and had to break down and buy a heavy duty one

I know what you mean, I did so much modding of tactical gear and tool pouches between working with EOD, and running a squadron paraloft, that I feel like BlackHawk and London Bridge owe ME money!

How do you like Pensacola? I keep trying to talk my wife into moving there. Some of my Nav friends live down there.

Stange town, really. AMAZING BEACHES!!! But no surfing

This place is STILL recoiling from Hurricanes Ivan and Dennis two seasons ago. There are places that STILL look like a war zone.
Great history - NAS Pensacola is the oldest continuously manned military post in all of the Americas! Although it is home to the Blue Angels and is the cradle of naval aviation, it's not really a "Navy Town" like I was used to in Jacksonville.
