When Navy Petty Officer Matthew Willman first heard he'd be going to San Francisco for Fleet Week, he imagined nights on the town and drinking like, well, a sailor.
He thought he knew the drill. Instead, he was handed one.
"I don't know what to expect but I'm very excited," he said.

...""We've got a tunnel with a couple of concrete walls inside there and we have a victim somewhere inside that tunnel," said former firefighter and instructor Tony Smerdel. The goal is to be the first team out with that victim intact."
The pressure to secure this year's bragging rights was on. Willman was determined to bring back the title for the Hamilton team.
The competition is a high-stakes rescue with no rules and no holds barred -- a test of skill, speed and thinking fast on their feet. But then the Murtha team, in a daring move, stole Hamilton team's stretcher.
You might think tensions would rise fast. But instead, the two groups just fought it out.
In the end, the Hamilton team got the stretcher and the victim.
"I think they did a little bit of cheating, holding the basket, but that's a victory," Willman said."
