For someone posting without an return E-mail address you want to know a lot.
I don't think I will tell you.

I would be interested in conversations about small arms held aboard
ships. Do FFGs or DDs carry Stingers? I could see a use for a Stinger
aboard an SSN or SSBN (Hey, howabout Stingers aboard the SSGN's?) but
aboard a Destroyer? Especially a Burke...

Seemed more sensible than to use berthing :)

The rest of the questions... good luck on those. Frankly, most of it isn't
any of your business if you have to resort to usenet to ask.

In that case maybe you could focus your question(s) a little. Your original
post seemed to "cover a lot of ground".

I might be able to help with the carrier and aviation type stuff.

For our '88 Cruise, every JOs safe in their stateroom.

Wonder if it's the same for guys flying in DS I/II...

We all bought handguns, flew with them...
