We were at Hoehnsfeldt west Germany training and on downtime cuz we were gonna rail head back to our kaserene. So we was drinking and couple my friends were like let’s streak through the Women’s barracks so they left cold weather mask in hand. Got undressed someplace took off streaked and the guy they gave their fatigues to hold came back letting their asses hang out at night , he was supposed to wait until they returned to where they undressed didn’t work out some senior NCO and Mp’s got involved rounding them up.

Alcohol and enlisted 911 waiting to happen.

Barracks legend: One dark and stormy night some of the boys, either ammo or civil engineers, got lit and decided it would be shits and grins to streak the WAF barracks. They talked the omega male of the pack into doing the deed. Pack took Buck Naked to the barracks and turned him loose. He got through about half of the first floor before Charlie's Angels showed up and trapped him in an utility closet. Armed with bunk stackers and ball bats Angels informed him he might score a medical discharge. Fortunately for Buck cooler heads prevailed and SPs removed him from harm's way. Rumor had it that he left the fly force and joined a strict monastery.

80% of human activity can be summed up by "It seemed like a good idea at the time."

Post Ops debrief

"How the fuck did we win that one?!"

"It's a miracle or they got more ding bats than we do."

"That's not possible."
