"Toy Doctor." hee hee hee!!!!rassberry

and my stripes were a very nice white untill e-4, not that funky green for aire-dales.ha haha!!! do you still have your brown shoes???
many good friends and great techs i have worked with in the past were "TD's" and with the exception of sea-going lifer- dogs DS's and FTG/SS, they re the wizzards of simulation.
fair winds and following seas, shipmate!!!:winkie:

There's more than one of us having worked for more than one branch of the military. I'm a former AF34199 and I'm also a plank owner at FAIRECONRON SEVEN (VQ-7) USN. There are several AF, Navy and Army "34s/TDs" working here. Most work for L3 Link. I'm government.

in my 14 years in the navy, i never ran across any army or airforce TD's, as i thought the US Navy NEC "TD" stood for "Tradevman", an Aviation designation, but TD's worked in many navy commands from carpenters to photgraphers to instructors to ...TA DA!!!, Simtech's. i have since worked as an aviation simtech and met many Airforce sim techs, ex panam,eastern, and USair, etc., and none claim to be TD"s. I worked at 2 major training centers in my shore tour's, something sea-going rates earn for going out to sea, and worked with many navy TD"s and respect 99% of them. at both commands, we enjoyed a good natured competition and espri de corps.pirate:
