The majority of the topics on RP deal with current issues and some serious topics, however, I have found that having a clever and well-timed sense of humor can be one of the many necessary tools in your "bag of leadership skills".

Below are a few short skits on some timeless military topics. NOTE: There are many more, just do a youtube search on "Armstrong and Miller Pilots"
