Friend of Fred
I was in the Marines and one of my tours was in Iwakuni Japan. Just anE3 at the time my roommate and I were warned to stay out of the O think he was a Master Sergeants was in maintenance control. Well one day we get a call to go visit him. He is fit to be tied, what haven’t we fixed tue FA18 GCU’s in for work. So many Sittig there that the birds were actually down only maybe six flying. We kept ordering non foaming oil to run in the test station, you can’t run them up without it. So we tell the “man” that we need bubbles oil. He is now on a mission and says he will get us the stuff and by golly, not his words, we will get these GCU’s running once it is in even if it takes a week straight of working in tue varied or shed. A week goes by and we have out Gunny yelling at us. Get your bits over to the Master sergeant! What the heck did you do to piss him off? We head over laughing our butts off because we know what happened. We walk in he starts yelling but can’t keep a straight face and starts laughing. He was almost kn tears, still using choice names for us he says why didn’t you just tell me it was non foaming hydraulic oil. So we reply, that wouldn’t be as much fun! That month of mess duty was worth it and we were his go to guys from then on. Never had an problem with him again.
