Spot on BEagle!

The pocket game was once described in a letter from a crusty old engineer SO2 colleague (Gone, but not forgotten, Tom RIP) to a VSO as that "puerile aircrew pastime"

As a follow on: While doing early sea survival trials with Typhoon test aircrew off Fowey where there were other jocks in training...I heard one "bona mate" complain that the Typhoon guys were trying to be elitist because they were wearing boots with inflatable inserts (Part of the pressure ensemble) ...and showing the inflation tube....

Priceless!
