    on a lighter note...

    Best part of gaining rank was getting put in charge of folks who fucked up. Sergeant Major told me to "Be Creative, I don't care." I had folks swab the flight line until the water came off clean, paint pad eyes with a brush that had only 3 or 4 bristles, sharpen concertina wire, or align all...
