9. Thank you petgoat
I especially like telling this story as it is a rare person living today that has flown on the mighty MARS. They were soon retired from the navy and several ended life as fire fighting (water drop) craft.

The loss of the engine on the second flight and sitting lonely among the hundred fearful sailors and wearing a life jacket (CO2 inflatable) and a parachute was a serious detriment to enjoying the return to Japan.Flying after that was never fun like before.

I am in error; I was a lowly E-4 then. You have a good point concerning the commander. Do you have experience?

This story is first draft. I will take your suggestions to heart.
