Anybody know where I can find a bucket of steam and bottle of bulkhead remover?

hmm my first day in PP my section chief told me to go find a gap Gage for a M109. i had never worked on a diesel engine in my life so i spent probably good 20 min going up an down the gun line asking for one. wondering the entire time why everyone was snickering and giving me suggestions where to find one. lol

a box of grid squares and a trunk of ground guides.

Sent a guy to supply for a bucket of frequency grease, box of grid squares and 50 feet of chow line......even sent him to the Company Gunny looking for a PRC (prick) E7

Used to send new guys on the ship down to the engine room for a "BT Punch". Most never knew why the "BTs" in the engine room actually punched them.

I was in a Chinook outfit in Vietnam. We'd have the newbees requisition a yard of flight line and a gallon of prop wash. Tech Supply would give them the TM and tell them they needed part numbers. It would get them out of your hair for a couple hours....

can of prop wash, box of grid squares, 100 feet of firing line, blank firing adapter for M-203, can of squelch for radio's,

Send newbie's up to Battalion Maint for muffler bearing for M113 or liquid track tension, or to Commo for squelch for my radio.

10 feet of flightline

I was in artillery. on separate occasions I was sent to look for a box of grid squares, some gun target line, and a battery adjustment wrench.

LOL - Reminds me when we were in Ft. Hood. They had cattle on the base at that time. We were heading out to the range and saw a Bull out in the pasture. I asked the driver to stop for a tire check and he did. Well we had this kid that was not that brilliant at times and was definitely as city boy. (ID10T) So I asked him if he had ever heard of a 1 uddered cow! Nope never heard of it he said. So we pointed out in the field and showed him the "1 uddered cow". I said have you ever milked a cow before? He said no. I said you wanna try? He said sure. Sooooo, with all of trying not to bust a gut, he started over the fence but we had to tell him to stop because the bull was already running towards him and he didn't even realize it, until afterwards. We just couldn't keep it in any longer. We couldn't let him get killed by a bull. We were laughing so hard it took another 15 minutes just to get moving again. Tooooo funny.
