Those workshops had lots of people with very high skill levels from their former civilian lives. Body builders would have been among them. As anyone with military service knows, no matter how hectic the work, there is always time for interesting "foreign" orders.

Probably some keen young officer suggested it or complained about getting bogged all the time and the workshop blokes took the baton and ran with it.

Quite possibly a few cartons of beer fell out of the back of a truck near the workshop.
