CR. Too bad masculine hetero men stopped writing fiction. Has their been great fiction written about being a fighter pilot? Maybe The Hunters? It seems like there are a lot of dying ways of life and careers that have not been really documented in great fiction - and never will be.

No, I don't think so. I haven't read Billy Budd but I think it's another seafarer novel.
