Exciting, yes, but not as conducive to a long life, Fallenmonk.

I flunked out of quals for UDT because of bad inner ears. Would have been much more exciting than fixing computers.

Wed, 08 Aug 2007 06:52:08 +0000http://whynow.dumka.us/2007/08/07/finally-3/#comment-28333i know people who did that, professional oil rig divers in summer, snow skiers in the rockies or sailors or scuba divers in south america in winter. i was envious at first, but i don’t care how much the job pays, living in a bubble on the bottom of the gulf would get old. especially after you got the bends a couple of times.

A neighbor who was an Air Force special materials welder took a class in deep water construction diving from the Navy. He was in RED HORSE, the Air Force’s combat engineering unit.
He didn’t say, but I assume it was for rescue and/or recovery in the Gulf.
I He was really planning to get out to work on the oil rigs.
