Foreword by Mike
This little bit of humour was sent to me by a naval aviator. I was taught my
high-performance and complex aircraft ratings by a naval aviator and in truth I
have a lot of difficulty fitting either of them into any of the descriptions below apart from the professional
part that is, having said that, they are both very professional so I think we
can expand their skills to include "laudable masculine talents" detail
below - George and Allan, you know who you are :o)
PS - And the female naval aviators look just as tough,
although having read her profile I'd maintain it's the Brit in her...
As seen by himself:
An incredibly intelligent, tall, handsome, innovative, and highly trained
Professional Killer. Idol to countless females and gentleman adventurers,
who wears a Star
Sapphire Ring, carries a
hair-trigger .45 Auto in a specially designed, hand-made quick-draw holster
along with his trusty Demo knife, who is always on time thanks to his ability to
obtain immediate transportation and the reliability of his Rolex
watch.
As seen by his Wife: A
disreputable member of the family who comes home once a year all bruised up
driving a stolen jeep up to the back door carrying a B-4 bag full of dirty
laundry with a hard-on showing through his stained flight suit, smelling of
stale booze and JP-4, wearing a huge watch, a fake ring, and that damn ugly
beat-up pistol in that stupid holster, who will three months later go out the
front door, thankfully for another year.
As seen by his Commander:
A fine specimen of a drunken, brawling, jeep stealing, woman corrupting
liar, with a Star Sapphire ring, fantastically accurate Rolex watch, an
unauthorized .45 in a non-regulation shoulder holster, and trusty Demo knife.
As seen by Wing Headquarters:
The embodiment of a drunken, brawling, jeep stealing, lying, zipper-suited
Sun God, with a ring, a proscribed 1911A1 in a non-regulation shoulder holster,
a Rolex watch, who for some reason carries a Demo knife.
As seen by The DoD: An
overpaid, rule-ignoring, over-ranked tax burden, who is unfortunately totally
indispensable simply because he has volunteered to go Anywhere, and do Anything,
at Any Time, only so long as he can booze it up, brawl, steal jeeps, lie, and
wear a star sapphire ring, Rolex watch, and carry an obsolete hand gun and a
Demo knife.
As seen by the Enemy:
The implacable face of Death…
