But, to be fair, they afforded me the opportunity to dive some beautiful waters too... Like they say, the Navy givith, and the Navy takith away...  |
Mixed gas or common air breather, Shipmate? You obviously are serious about it now. I was a PADI “hobby-lobber” before Going to Panama City Dive school a long time ago. Sharks and Daisies was not a drill I was taught by PADI.
As a former Marine, I was not involved with the bilge yuck of ports and below water line ship work but always felt for Shipmates diving pierside or at port anchorage that did that work. I wouldn’t ever let a SF Army trained Marine Diver be Dive Sup. The Navy trained guys had the repetitive dive tables beat into them.
