I once met a former Navy F-14 pilot who had been active when the movie came out. He said they went from nobodies to rock stars overnight. Apparently they were particularly popular with the womenfolk....
Lol, the O club at Miramar in the late 80s to early 90s was the stuff of legend. Then of course Pat Schroeder and Bill Clinton came along and crushed everyone's smokes.

the sad, but noble nonetheless, life of guys that flew a grasshopper trying to fly! I guess it was better than being a prop or rotary wing pilot! ;)

A good friend at Church was a former Tomcat pilot (became a medical doctor afterwards and presently works at NAS Jax)...but he's always had a wry smile on his face when talking about being a Tomcat pilot in the late 80s...:cool:

I already hate the Russians...again.

We know they won’t make the Chinese the bad guys (despite being the obvious choice).

Won’t be TROP either (“The Religion of Peace”).

It’s Hollywood. Somehow they have to make it conservatives, Republicans, or capitalists.

Military-Industrial Complex maybe?

Yes - hopefully a Christian toxic masculine white Republican male ...with an eye patch and an Armani suit eating a Chick fil A sandwich

Penis writer was from NAS Whidbey Island. They used to sell magnets, decals and such but you can hardly find them now.

Bumping this. I was at Pendleton in the late 80’s. Miramar OClub was indeed wild. Club would be packed to the gills. I always appreciated the short stroll over to the rooms where you could entertain the nights catch. Everyone knew the lady’s name that ran that front desk.

Wasn’t there also a pool outside the main bar? Memory a little hazy.

Yes that pool got a lot of action for sure.
