Call signs have been macho and humorous for decades. Not sure if "Clown Penis" will ever fly though! LOL

Remember call signs only have tohave 15% truth tothem. I know a guy that showed up to his first unit with a big zit on his forehead. His call sign from there on out was Tumor. One guys last name was Hass and his call sign was Jack. It is usualy derived from either some kind of buffonery or stupid act done early int he career and sometimes the name is given like bluto in Animal House when he named Otter and he asked Bluto why and bluto yelled back WHY NOT? Anyway most of them aren't what most people think they reference...but you won't know that.

Lt Col Scott Shuttleworth - We all get names, mostly for stupid or accidental reasons. I'm not sure Commanders would approve if they actually knew what the names meant. Glad it works like it does.
