Well past time to set the record straight on the Carter presidency

75. One thing I found out about Carter was about that...

Nuclear School thing.

Years ago I worked with a guy who went through it. Howie was Kings Point, not Annapolis, but our merchant marine had been so outsourced already that he fulfilled his military service in the Navy.

A select group went through nuke school and the bottom student each week had the orders already cut (except for his name) to a minesweeper in some
inhospitable country. After the first Saturday and they found out it was for real, they all busted their asses. Each week they had fo learn, or remember, a semester's course. First week was advanced algebra and calculus-- then it got difficult. By the time the survivors were through this, they were well on the way to a masters in nuclear engineering on top of the usual naval stuff. So Carter was well educated to command a nuclear sub.

Too bad his father died and he felt oblgated to run the peanut farm. He could have eventually become Chief of Staff, at least

But he made up for it being President.
