A part of the RB-47 preflight ritual was chinning on each engine and looking into it. The pilots usually checked the two outboard engines, which did not require chinning themselves. They let (made) the younger, more agile copilots do the chins and check the other four engines. One day, a new copilot confessed to the old AC that he had no idea what he was looking for when inspecting the engines. The ‘Old Head’ told him he wasn’t looking for anything, he was checking for echoes. He was told to shout Yoo Hoo into each engine and listen for an echo. If he got one, it was a bad engine. For a while (until they got smarter) you could hear YOO HOOs coming from all over the ramp and see new copilots hanging from engine intakes. That came to be known as the “Yoo Hoo Check’.

We were stopped at a traffic light on the road leading from the air base to the highway into the city. When the light changed, the woman at the head of the line attempted to go, but her car had somehow slipped out of gear. She raced the engine furiously, trying to make the car go. An old Line Chief in the car behind her hung his head out the window and hollered, "That ain't no airplane, lady, you gotta put it in gear, the fan won't pull it.”

Any time two or more GIs get together the promotion system will enter the conversation, as everyone has a gripe about the system and a fix for it. The best I ever heard came from one of the Crows, he said, "Everyone should come into the Air Force as a full colonel and be allowed to sink to their own level."

The corporal at the Motor Pool received a call one day demanding the delivery of a Jeep.

"Sorry, man", said the Corporal, "the last Jeep went out yesterday to Sgt. Fat-Ass McGinty."

The voice on the phone said, "Do you know who this is?"

"No, man," said the Corporal.

"Well this is Sgt. McGinty."

After a moment, the Corporal asked, "Do you know who this is?"

McGinty replied, "No, I don't."

Said the Corporal before hanging up, "Bye-bye, Fat-Ass!"

Several years ago, we were returning to the west coast from Florida in one of our units passenger aircraft. Since I was a flight crew member, I was wearing a flight suit. While standing at the back door of the aircraft awaiting takeoff, an 82 Airborne Chaplin came up the ramp. He was hitching a ride with us. As soon as he saw my flight suit, he asked where his parachute was. I, very straight faced, explained to him that we didn't carry parachutes, but he kept insisting that he wanted a parachute. About that time our copilot walked by, and I told him about the Chaplin's request. The copilot turned to the chaplin and said in a very serious sounding voice:, "Sir, In the Air Force, we believe that airplanes are to fly in, not jump out of." The Chaplin very quietly went into the aircraft and found a seat.

An amry SGT was leading his platoon when he spotted a marine standing at parade rest on top of a hill. He said to the nearest PVT in his platoon, "Bring me that marine." The private took off running and at the same time the marine took off running and they met in some woods that were between them. There was silence and then the marine ran back up on top of the hill and returned to his original stance. The private never returned. The SGT was pissed and sent two more privates tell them to bring him that marine immediately because he wanted to know what the hell was going on. The privates ran toward the marine and the marine ran towards the privates and they met in the woods. This time there was the sound of a slight scuffle and then silence and the marine returned to his original position. The SGT was infuriated because his privates had not returned and sent the entire platoon after that marine and again the marine met them in the woods. This time there was a scuffle and a scream heard then silence and the marine walked up the hill and returned to his original position with his uniform slightly wrinkled and it was about this time that one of the PVTs came crawling out of the woods and when he reached the SGT he said, "Sorry, Sir, there was an ambush...there were two of them."

An Army Chaplain, An USAF Doctor and a Marine Lawyer were in a Boat. They had lost their oars, and were near an Island, but were surrounded by "SHARKS", they decided, that the only way to make it to the island, was for one t jump overboard & swim away from the island, and the other two could swim to the island, and hope that the sharks didn't get the one swimming the other way. The MARINE LAWYER, said, I'll do it & Jumped overboard & swam away, the other two jumped overboard the other way & swam to the island. They looked out to sea, t see how the Marine was making out! To their surprise, he was riding the back of one of the Largest Sharks in the Bunch. The shark swam right up next to the island and the Lawyer stepped off on "Dry land" The shark then swam away, & the Lawyer waved to them, s they left. It's a "Miracle" said the Chaplain, "No" said the Marine Lawyer, "JUST A PROFESSIONAL COURTESY!

While at Ft. Wainwright, Alaska, The USAF had mostly been shipped to other bases, and only a few remained. One day, while the only USAF Sgt in the Housing Area, he lived in, was out washing his car, withhis Army Sgt, neighbors, one of them asked, "Why didn't you join the Army instead of the Air Force?", He replied, I tried to, but was turned down! at This, all the Army Sgts were listening very cosely, "Why" Asked the Army SGt. "Bcause, said the USAF Sgt, THEY FOUND THAT MY PARENTS WERE MARRIED!" They never Harrassed him any more after that, about the Army. BUT some of the Men liked Alaska so well, they switched from USAF to Army, to be able to stay up there. Personally, with the Temp, at -75 below Zero F. in l961, I was glad when the orders came to rotate to the "Lower 48" But wasn't happy with my assignment at "Dover AFB, Delaware" The wind was worse than Alaska, the Snow worse, & "They didn't give you "ARTIC GEAR" in Dealwar & the Girls had to be imported from Wilmington De, Penns GroveNJ & Philadelphia Pa by USO Bus, so we could hve "Dance Partners" NO JOKE.
