: : : So far the closest thing in the book (first few chapters) to a "G.I." is a "Seabee", and my mind considers them to be like today's Navy "Seals". So, unless the marines or army land in later chapters, the only military are Navy.What I meant to say, and didn't write OUT, is: Seabee's are Navy personel. [Rather than marines stationed on a ship.] Today's "Seals" are also Navy personel. Now, let's discuss the "red" climate in 1957 - and the projection of a possible war 25 years after WW II.
