After an exhausting session with Victoria's Secret Police "Jeff
Crowell" blurted out:

Hi, guys.

An acquaintance has asked me to help decode a bit of
Navy pilot jargon his daughter heard at a Poli Sci lecture.
The prof is a former Tomcat pilot, and was apparently
regaling the class with Tomcat tales. He used the
acronym "SBFAFP" (spelled out, not spoken as a word
as Navy types are wont to do) and told them that "FP"
stood for "Fighter Pilot."


Could it have been, "SFBAFP?"...**** for brains-asshole-fighter pilot?

Since it is a Nasal Radiator using the acronym, I'll lean toward
"****-for-brains Air Force pilot". Clearly the Tom-driver wouldn't be
demeaning fighter pilots generically.
