papabear , it appears that u had a bad day. In the time it took u to reply to my post u probably could have answered my questions. U also act as if the same question is asked on a forum its a big mistake, I think it gives new members a chance to give their input to a ? that may have been posted 2-3 years ago, things might have changed new information might be available , plus if u hadn't noticed search functions are not exactly like hal, i have searched this site and found plenty of useful information but I had a few specific ? I thought u might be able to answer, maybe if u were as serious about ur profession as someone like Justin, u would be willing to help someone who shows an interest instead of posting "classic" comments.

I'm glad someone put that out there. Thanks, HouseDad. I always figured that when every other post on the Forum spelled out the word 'you' that, well, "when in Rome."
mdulleck - in your time in the AF you had to face the FNG treatment from time to time. An honest, innocent question had to have been shot down with "that's your lookup." Jump in with the mosquito bitten, malaria ridden salts of the seven seas (Order of the Ditch, yall), and you'll get hazed a bit. Roll with the punches, friend.
As far as your 'old guy' waiver, I'm sure the Navy would love to have you. I had a guy in my Power School class five years ago that was 34 years old (the absolute oldest you can be to enlist). We need people, and you sound willing and able. Just remember that l337 5p34k d035n't r3411y 4pp1y 1n teh pr0gr4mz n00bz, and that for some reason you have to earn ego in the NNPP. People will probably only make fun of you for Air Force time, and the NCO status of an E5 doesn't really fly with Navy Nukes. Everyone is an E5.

+Karma. :) Just weigh your options. The Navy will take you, but then again, so will probably just about any nuke plant. So you are talking starting in the 60s vs whatever the Navy will start you at... 20s? maybe?

PS On my crew there is an NLO who was a former AF ordinance person.
