yes..aircraft mech is the best job in the Navy, you work hard and long hours sometimes but I wouldn't have wanted to do ANYTHING else!had a blast!...20 yrs retired Navy Aircraft Mech/NDI inspector here, now inspect air force 707's and KC-10's as a civilian contractor
started out as a AMS(aircraft mechanic,structural) then they changed the name to just "AM".
just my opinion but..seabee's suck..if you want to build things and drive construction equip you dont need to go into the military to do it...MP is worthless unless you want to be a security guard when you get out...again..you dont need to go into military for that......aviation ordnance? not many civilian helo's or planes have bombs attached to them...worthless unless your in the military...
galveston...i spent a few weeks at Autec on andros island in 99...went down there to test a new mine sweeping sonar for our MH-53 helicopters....cool lil place..lots of beer drinking and some good fishing!!
iron man...if ya have any specific AM questions send me a PM..
