There's a "nickname number" we gave to those of us who flew
round engines for any length of time.

The Navy put all the smarter people in Vikings and Neptunes.
All the fighter pilots mothers' told them never to hang out or to drink with
you people. It was possible that the smartness could rub off and if that
happened, they could lose their fighter slot and get themselves transferred
up to a multi-engine outfit !!!
