Hi Jinks in the Bar
Anyone remember the RCAF Mess at Gander, in the days of The Albatross Hotel and The Flyers Club.?
To gain entry into the Mess for the first time, one was 'screeched-in'.
Screech was Newfoundland rum which was was lit in the glass and then had to be downed in one.
A former nav's name springs to mind who did that but in true Yes Minister fashion, 'I couldn't possible say who.'

So junior pilot Bloggs couldn’t recognise his Senior colleagues; even if wearing balaclavas, and was so upset he had to report sick! It doesn’t sound very scary to me. Perhaps, said junior pilot is in the wrong job!
Anyway, just high spirits as usual for the Hofficers eh! If it had been an Airman, probably CM followed by Colchester…😬

Commanders ARE fired. of course, they can also be shot.
