Default Crazy

A young soldier was taking his girlfriend for drinks in the mess for the first time, and trying to explain the odd things the soldiers did. When a couple of engineers came in, half the guys in the bar stopped what they were doing and raised a glass to them, the girlfriend asked what that was about. The soldier replied that it was to commend the engineer's courage, they had just come off a tour in africa disarming mines. A few minutes later a few intense and slightly twichy infantrymen came in, and two thirds of the bar raised a glass, what was that about the girlfriend asked. Her soldier replied "Those guys just got back from roto-0 in Afghanistan, and everyone is just showing their respect for their courage", the girlfriend nodded. A couple of minutes later, a tired, nervous looking crew staggered in, and the whole mess jumped to its feet, raised their glasses, whistled and shouted, the crew waved acceptance and bellied up to the bar. The girlfriend was really curious, "Who are those guys?", the boyfriend replied in hushed tones "Those guys fly SEA KINGS over the open ocean, those bastards are crazy!"
