JB, you just get used to heavy seas and after awhile just roll with it. On the Blandy in 68' we went went through 2 typhoons in the Tonkin Gulf and a hurricane south of Hatterus. We took a roll that was within 2 degrees of rolling completely over. I was strapped in my rack at the time as sonar was secured. Did not think the ship would come back but she did. Never got seasick, you just get used to heavy seas. But the cure was to never take a pleasure cruise anywhere after the Navy.
