Undersea beauty tip No.1:

- Unscented baby wipes help to keep those sensitive areas fresh and minimize those unsightly sweat stains. Also, absorbent towel can make a handy substitute for underwear.

No wonder why I spent most of my adult like working on an aircraft that blow up submarines

Nonskimmer · 09-07-2005, 12:33 PM

Now why would any sane human being want to blow up a submarine?

Besides for the obvious threat they can pose.

Hell no. It just enhances ones appreciation for the simpler things in life, like soap and fresh water.

hehe Don't forget your gold bond powder, for a fresh nutsack.

Nonskimmer · 09-07-2005, 01:24 PM

Ah yes, we can't forget the ol' anti-itch powder. I always keep a large bottle stuffed at the foot of my bunk.

So does the desert.

Nonskimmer · 09-07-2005, 01:42 PM

Hmmm, good point. But that's more of a dry heat.

DerAdlerIstGelandet · 09-07-2005, 02:30 PM

Very true, but all said, I would not trade it for a submarine any day. I like seeing the sky.

P38 Pilot · 09-07-2005, 05:04 PM

Im with Alder. I would either fly in a UH60 down to a LZ or ride in a Humvee or in one of those Infantry tanks.

DerAdlerIstGelandet · 09-08-2005, 01:22 PM

Infantry tanks? Do you mean the Bradley Fighting Vehicle?

lesofprimus · 09-08-2005, 01:53 PM

lol.... No he's talking about the ones that the grunts jump onto whenever they can hitch a free ride....

DerAdlerIstGelandet · 09-09-2005, 10:29 AM

LOL, the grunts try and catch rides with anything they can. We would land someplace and they would run out "Hey you guys going to Mosul!?" If we were and we had space we would take them. We used to joke around about it and say we were going to put Johnny Cab signs on our doors. The call sign that the army gave us to use in Iraq (normally it is Knighthawks) was Angry Cat (example Angry Cat 21) and we said that the Cat stood for Combat Air Taxi.

Overall though we did not mind, it was a hell of lot safer to fly than drive and get hit by IED's.
