Those socks are vaguely reminiscent of the Orlando Thunder unis, and not in a good way.

I did not. It's the best I could find on short notice. They had similar things for the rest of the league.
BTW, the unis were really that bright. I was in the stands for their first game ever in the Citrus Bowl against the San Antonio Riders. QB matchup was Orlando's Kerwin Bell vs. San Antonio's Jason Garrett, now HC for my Cowboys. Just saw on Wikipedia that one of San Antonio's lesser-known players was John "Bradshaw" Layfield, who later went on to great fame as a heel in WWE.

I'm impressed in a weird sort of way.
Once again, I didn't draw that. I'm not that good. It was just a site I found on a Yahoo! search. But I did remember the flourescent lime green because I was at the first game. I was in Nuclear Field "A" School at the time, which was co-located with my boot camp in Orlando. I'm still steamed that the Navy shut down all Orlando and San Diego boot camp operations, leaving the Great Mistakes.

So you had access to a nuclear reactor at some point in time?

Apparently they came to their senses and made him an RPS, instead.

NFAS is where one learns one's base rating in the Nuclear Power program. There are three of them: Electronics Technician, Electrician's Mate, and Machinist's Mate. I was in the longer ET program. I was kicked out with six weeks left until graduation (bad grades) and went to my first ship [USS HALSEY (CG-23)] in the deck department. While there, I was afforded the opportunity to strike for RP (that is, train for it). I got to attend RP "A" School (then at Naval Technical Training Center Meridian, MS, now at Fort Jackson, SC), then went to Marine Combat Training (which doesn't happen anymore), leading to my spending almost the entirety of my remaining time in the Navy serving Marines.

They consoidated us at Camp Geiger (@ Lejeune) even though it would have made more sense to send ME to Pendleton since my ultimate orders were to Pendleton to begin with. I guess it was something of a tradeoff, though. At Geiger, we got continually bit by all sorts of bugs. Pendleton is eternal hills. Not sure which I would have liked better. I'll never forget, though, my bunkmate faceplanting the concrete deck from the top rack in the squad bay in the middle of the night. That was crazy.
