The story is this: At 9pm I was working night duty in the avionics

were about to cleanup and turn in our tools when the hanglar claxon
went off



Not sure about the MC, but in the Air Force, going on standby meant
things were slow and you didn't pull your entire shift sitting in the
shop...you went back to the dorms or the bowling alley with a pager so
they could get a hold of you if needed.


Then again in the Air Force we had "hangars" instead of "hanglars"
and we'd get called over a radio or land line. We didn't need a klaxon
of that's what yawn meant when he said "claxon."

Pity he never served on Navy boats, he would have been heaved over
the side.

IIRC he has told a story in the past, either on this NG or one of the
others, of being throw over board. He claims that's how men like him were
taught how to swim.

Problem is he wasn't smart enough to realize, they weren't trying to teach
him how to swim.

One other thing I'd like to ask.

Who signed to aircraft log, returning the aircraft to service after
replacing the APU? That person should have been spanked for not testing
in accordance with tech data I'm sure was in place concerning
maintenance for that aircraft. The (avionics) shop chief (probably the
highest ranking NCO in your unit) should have lost a stripe for allowing
that to happen in the first place. You should have had your balls
flattened out in a vice because....well, just because.

I was authorized to sign equipment serviceable tags (yellow tags) and
sign off the aircraft for return to service (from the avionics
standpoint) as an E-3. I was also our midnight shift supervisor as an
E-3. How many did I supervise? One (me). Bottom line is I was able to
work alone, so I assume my shop chief had faith in my abilities.
[sarcasm mode on] Am I a hero? You betcha, cause I did my friggin'
job. [Sarcasm mode off].

Didn't the reference to the double-digit midget Vietnam-era crew chief
sound
a little awkward? It sounds a little disrespectful to me.

Which only says you know squat about military slang, putz. Ask daddy, he'll
tell you what a double-digit midget is.

Juan, I see you skipped over this question and answered all the other
threads first. Not a surprise. You are the coward. You will not sign a
DA-1800, despite the fact that you want everybody to examine your glorious
military career.

.....sez the dip**** who won't even use his own name on Usenet posts because
the mere thought of people finding out who he is causes uncontrollable panty
trembling.

Come back when mama gives you more quarters, kiddo.

Juan, you wanted us to check out your military service, so why don't you
sign a DA-1800?

When I contact the NIS, and advise them that you might be wearing military
uniforms or parts of military uniforms that you are no longer authorized to
wear, I certainly will give them my name.

The funny thing is, many of the regulars know exactly who I am. Why do you
care who I am? Unlike you, I don't feel any great imperative to share my
life with strangers.

Juan, you have invited public scrutiny of your military career. Have you
forgotten that? I am making no claims about my life, career, or aviation
expertise that calls for qualification.
