Many years ago, together with others, I was hosting some visiting Belgian Air Force aircrew at Brize for some air show. Most of the Belgians sported significant moustaches...
"Why do they all have moustaches?" asked some rather young person-formerly-known-as-a-WRAF Plt Off who was sitting on my knee.
"Perhaps they just like the Velcro effect", I told her.
"What's that?", she innocently replied.
"Think about it....."
About a minute later she suddenly went bright red and clapped her hand to her mouth, before giving me a thump on the shoulder.
"Penny's dropped, I guess?" was my response.

I grew what I thought was a stylish and debonair looking moustache during a certain deployment.
My wife met me at the airport and totally failed to recognise me. After I eventually attracted her attention she took one look and said: "Well THAT will have to come off!"
All that time and effort, wasted! :ouch:
On the other hand I remember one Flt Lt who had a rather splendid moustache which he had grown before he got married. During one drunken party he was persuaded to shave it off and came back into the bar and greeted his wife, who gave him a puzzled look - then screamed.
He he had to sleep in the spare room until he grew it back.
ORAC, you may remember this tash from 280 SU

Puddy Catt - the greatest 'tash I ever met. It was also attached to one of the biggest hooligans I have ever met...
