What nickname were you given when you served in the Military?

Two nicknames; Otis and Widget. On a cadet trans-Atlantic crossing aboard CGC Eagle we had only two 16mm movies; Animal House and Jungle Book. The same two movies were shown everyday for about three weeks. We use to turn the sound off and speak the lines. I used to say, "Otis, my man". So, my friends started calling me Otis. Plus I use to listen to Otis Redding a lot.
The second name, Widget, came about when I became Weapons Officer and I spent the most time in the engine room than any other deck officer. Along with varied collateral duties, I was involved in many aspects of the ship.

COL Mikel J. Burroughs where to start? "HOOV" "HOOV MONSTER" "HOOV DADDY" but the most common was "Tomahawk" (1st unit was 2nd BN 23rd Inf Regt TOMAHAWK S).

In the Navy I was and FTG who worked on the weapons systems Radars, and my first name is Ray, Radar was a nickname that I was called on more than a few occasions.

Mine was Sparky. Probably because of my sweet disposition LOL. Mainly because in my younger years, it didn't take me much to set me off. As the years passed, it would build up and then let loose on the one that topped it off. Oh and I was quick to change the rooms mood. Usually for the better. Road name is Popeye though!

Baby Knees Ream, because I guess my knees look like they have baby faces in them

I came from a small farming community in Michigan and worked on my families farm until the day I went in the Air Force.
I was known as "PLOWBOY"

As a female I was a weight lifter in the Navy so they called me , RAM KITTY a version of Rambo the movie. I managed to be top female athlete and runner up for two years. I learned I had the status at a fitness test but I had no idea at the time they tracked that. I just loved working out.

When I first arrived in the field with my unit in Vietnam I was immediately tagged with the nickname "Tiny"--no doubt for the same reason bald men are nicknamed "Curly." . . .
