If the Marine Corps had wanted you to have a wife, they would have issued you one.
Navy aviation makes as much sense as Air Force seamanship.

Take offs are optional,
Landings are mandatory.

In the Navy land is always close by, even if it's 5 miles straight down.

The difference between a fairytale and a sea story, fairytales begin ‘once upon a time”, sea stories begin ‘this ain’t no [mod edit].

From the Blue Jackets Manual (Navy), definition of sea sickness - at first you are afraid you are going to die, then you are afraid you are not going to die.

Since I'm the OP, I can change direction a little ....
A sailor in a bar leans over to the guy next to him and asks, "hey, do you want to hear a Marine joke?" The guy responds, "well, before you tell that joke, you should know that I'm 6-foot tall, I weigh 200 pounds, and I'm a Marine."
"The guy sitting next to me," he continues, "is 6′ 2″, weighs 250 pounds, and he's also a Marine. Now, you still wanna tell me that joke?"
The sailor says, "nah, I don't want to have to explain it more than twice."
Note that I have yet to hear or see a combat engineer joke as I once was years back before my air national guard days. Maybe since they often make things go bang too loudly or cleared a minefield too often for the foot draggers it's made them numb

Navy Chief goes fishing
The rain had stopped and there was a big puddle in front of the bar just outside the American Legion Post.
A rumpled old Navy Chief was standing near the edge with a fishing line in the puddle.
A curious young Marine fighter pilot came over to him and asked what he was doing.
"Fishing," the old Chief simply said.
"Poor old chief," the Marine officer thought to himself and invited the old Navy Chief into the bar for a drink.
As he felt he should start a conversation while they were sipping their spirits, the young jet pilot winked at another pilot and asked the Chief, "How many have you caught today?"
"You're number 14," the old Chief answered, taking another sip from his double shot of 12-year-old Scotch, "2 Air Force, 3 Navy and 9 Marines."

As a plumber in the Air Force I learned three valuable lessons:
It flows downhill
When it hits the fan everybody stinks
And most importantly--don't bite your fingernails.

And it's a great landing if they can use the airplane again.
