ok I am a seabee brat and a current Army sgt . the seabees are construction battalion similar to the AF red horses. the name seabees was given to them by a admiral during WWII cause they were part of the Navy (sea) and they were always busy like bees. I know its simple and retard proof but hey it works. the seabees are the only construction establishment in the military who not only build but will defend themselves if attack . their jobs range from electricians to heavy equipment mechanics. most seabees go to port puenemi california for a school after boot at great lakes. dang listening to dads rants did teach me something
