Have you ever found yourself on mail buoy watch?
Ever been handed a kapok life vest and broom and told to fend off any monkeys that try to board during a Suez Canal transit?
How about being sent after the elusive ID10T that the chief needs right away?
I'd like to hear some of the other service gags run on the new guy. Let's hear em please!

I have a couple:
We sent new Privates looking for Keys to the Drop Zone before a Jump.
Or how about telling them we have a new radio that has replaced the PRC-77 (Pronounced "Prick 77") and the 1SG has it in his office, it's called the PRC-E8 (Pronounced "Prick E8).
Let's just say that this NBC NCO and our Commo NCO had to do quite a few push ups for sending the poor little private looking for the Prick E8!
Yes it was worth it I was laughing the entire time and so was the 1SG.

There's a similar prank in the Navy that I heard about but never saw anybody with the nerve to try it. You send a new guy down to Main Engineering with directions to turn the "Chief Engineer's Crank". Could be worse for the guy sending them than the new guy who fell for it.

See my story about chem lights earlier in this thread, I think you would appreciate it being a former NBC NCO

Sending the new airmen out for a box of flight line is always good. Also fun is telling them to ask the MSgt for a pricky-7.

Cross wind sensor check on an M1 series tank. Have them blow through it while rubbing there hands up and down on it to warm it up. Slowly raise the gun tube while they are doing this......
Have them preform "boom checks" also. Go down the entire line of tanks shouting boom into the gun tube to make sure it echos.
