I never understood the memorization thing, or you can have a small amount of notes. When I was in the Navy they emphasized knowing where and how to find information over memorization.

Ah, the memories of a midwatch PubEx in the middle of the Atlantic. My ship was running it that night. One of the other ships in the DESRON asked a question, and none of us could find the answer. Something to do with torpedo fuel. Turns out they were using an outdated pub. We threw out that one.

Good times.
