The same comments from RAM are germane he

Not mentioned: it's $14.
It's vanity press.

"....to piloting a nuclear submarine..."

From the web site:

enlistmentin the U.S.A.F., and served, as well, as a commissioned
officer in the U.S.A.F. Reserves.

No offense fellas, but your CVs look a little light, and other than the
front matter, this looks like straight cut and paste from government
(and therefore uncopyrighted) sources.....

I spent several years in the Air Force and I wanted to get the information
about Military career fields out to people. The Air Force gave me a great
start to my life. My son is 17 and he was asking me about the military so I
put this together. I hope people enjoy it. As far as making money it cost
a ME money to have this printed. We have ordered sever copies to GIVE to
recruiting offices. It is a thanks to to the Military. As to the time
spent to get this off the ground over 600 hours and over $3,000. I am not
going to make money on this project. It was not about the money.

Thanks
Vince

I certainly realize that vanity publishing requires payment from the
author. My original post was not about the money either.

The preview portion available online didn't seem to offer anything that
wasn't already available from official sources. Meanwhile, statements
like "piloting a nuclear submarine" are sure to attract the attention of
the detail-oriented. In the context of the sea services and military
ships, "piloting" has a very specific meaning, and it most often means
that a civilian with detailed knowlege of a particular waterway,
roadstead or port/harbor is directing the movements of the ship during
its transit in or out of that area. Playing loose with naval terminology
simply makes me wonder about other lapses in attention to detail, that's
all...
