<p>Wow, I had to post. Are you sure you are from a Military family background. Accidents happen in all walks of life, all type of businesses and even in the US Military. The pregnant woman in her Volvo being killed in the 80s near Oceana was a terrible, horrific accident! No one thinks that is funny. Military personnel have to deal with death and can not dwell on it to long because they have to see the bigger picture. It does not mean they are callous. It does not mean they do not feel or care because if they did not care they would not be serving our country. I feel anyone who serves does care deeply. USNA69 said, And when no one gets hurt, yes, we can chuckle about it. I think he was talking about the current incident, where no one was hurt and not the terrible incident from back in the 80s. Oh, do the Math if USNA69 graduated from the Academy in 1969, which I would assume he did, if he was still active duty he would have celebrated 42 years of service from the time he entered the Academy in 1965. That sure would be a long career in the Navy. I just felt I had to post because your statements seemed so anti-military and I believe you have a plebe son at the Academy. We need to be supportive of the troops . this includes Naval Aviators at home or abroad.</p>
