The story went at Guetersloh c. 1967 of a SNCOs Mess Fancy Dress Do, attended briefly by a sergeant on duty and therefore not in said dress.
When asked what he was attending as, he pulled his trouser pockets inside out and said "an elephant!".

"Elephants have trunks!"

"I can soon fix that!"

and did ......................

Gibraltar, a mighty frontline Jag Sqn flying the flag as a deterrent. Troops arrive on the Britannia trooper and promptly head to the Naaf 1 for a drink, turfing up they espy a cleaner and for some reason a couple whip their willies out and say what about these then love.... Or similar
She was not amused and neither was her husband a Sgt Plod... Result they were arrested charged and thrown off Gib, indeed they departed on the same flight from whence they came back to Germany..

Now the strange bit, both flashed the woman, both were charged, both charges were read on the Sqn and in front of the same person, But both got different fines, we could only summarise that size does indeed matter when it comes to charges..
