Tales from the Nuclear Navy ReviewAs a former navy nuke, I'll have to say that much of what Aaron has to say is true. (My first watch on one of my nuke ships, I looked over to a remote part of the engine room and saw several of my shipmates smoking weed under a vent fan. "What did I get myself into?," I thought. The book is an accurate depiction of what some believe to be life at sea on a nuclear ship.But, in any organization, there are those who make lemonade out of lemons, and there are those who spend their time complaining about the sour taste.I think Aaron is more of the latter than the former. Not that there is anything wrong with that...I admire Aaron for his fortitude getting these books published. Good on him.
But, that being said, book could have used a better editor (for example, one chapter is repeated in it's entirety). And a narrative theme would have worked better then just varied stories about different sailors, each of which, for some reason, have bad attitudes.
I stood watches 12 hours a day non-stop for 7 months on a Westpac cruise, in 100 degree 99 percent humidity, between the screaming main engine reduction gears, and it really sucked.
But, I also flew a small plane over the barrier reef of Darwin Australia, Danced in a Shinjuku nightclub, climbed Mt. Fujiyama, Ate stuffed pig in Nu'kalofa Tonga, Sipped mai-tais by the pool in Singapore, and more. and more,and more.
And when I (finally) got out of the Navy, I looked back at the 6 years with satisfaction. And the navy paid for my college, and my navy nuke experience got me a series of really great jobs.
I now have been out of the Navy 4 times a long as I was in the Navy, and honestly, the navy nuke investment has enriched my life.
Didn't workout that way for Aaron I guess. Too bad. Got a couple of books out of it though.Tales from the Nuclear Navy Overview
