She is a Naval Officer, NAV for goodness sake. Nothing bittersweet about that.
The below is a picture of my wife's step dad's PT boat, 1940-something. He flunked out of flight school and was assigned as the enlisted NAV on a PT Boat during WWII.
I am proud of your daughter. Freedom of the seas is essential. Bless her.
