Good thread going here chaps - How about including a few lunches?
ISK a number of years ago, the departing OC CXX (AEO),was being "lunched out" and was requested to answer a "vital" phone call at reception - how naive is that ?
On his return to the Dining Room, which had now been transformed into a Court Martial, wigs, gowns and all - he was arrested at the door and frog-marched to the bench.
The charges and the verdict were delivered quite smartish.
Found guilty. he was arranged for punishment and blindfolded in front of the Mess facing a MK6 fire truck - which was capable of delivering high pressure water at 6000 gallons a minute - he was probably thinking, "Good jape what?"
WO i/c fire section went along with the scam thinking a wind-up.
Sadly, he didn't bank on the man on the nozzle (a certain Navigator), wearing a wig and gown who shouted "Hit It" to the fire crew!
Flattened the people, the front doors and most of the windows.
Post lunch, they recovered to the Sqn for more beer on a contractors road roller - but that's another story!!
Can't do that these days - the aircrew will be seen to be doing nothing or behaving like hooligans, when everyone else is working.
Love many, Trust a few, Always paddle your own canoe!
