Grandpa was a civilian pilot after he got out of the Army following a tour in WWI as a cook, later (re?) joined the Army Air Corps just prior to the war (WWII), and finished out in the newly created USAF. His daughter, my mom, married a Naval Aviator (my dad). Sort of like families of generations of soldiers, there probably wasn't another destiny for me. The only thing I was interested in as a kid was Navy jets.
