Well Admiral Clark is downsizing the Navy personell, while increasing the number of ships. The Navy only has about 1/3 of it's people at sea at the moment, with something like 90+% of the ships away. He determined to cut costs the easiest thing to do is cut personel. Besides, during the Vietnam war pilots were constantly being lost (not too many currently), and he already had been in for a number of years and went through flight school (couple million per pilot). I dont have those, they only have about $20k invested in me at the moment, and that's about the cost of a really cheap missile (negligable).
