seems way over due to me -- BTW - the best way to shut up all the paratroopers laughing as you "poop" on the bird is to let the stank rip... imagine it's the same energy on a bomber ...nothing wrong with privacy --

1SG Dennis Hicks
CSM nobody was laughing at me as I sat on the ramp filling a honeypot (Bad dehydrated strawberries in an MRE) starting at the 10 minute warning and finishing as The doors were being opened. Most of the 64 Jumpers wanted to get out into the fresh air and loadmasters were at vomit stage :) I did get a parting gift (Full Trash bag) as the aircraft land and taxied to a waiting ambulance for me, they though I had a sever medical issue :) Hell I was the AJM and handed it off to a running buddy. I did however receive a very descriptive and well earned nick name that stayed with me for a few years :)

CSM Chuck Stafford
1SG Dennis Hicks - Nice, I never had a nickname that I knew of, but I did have the reputation as "the jumps not a GO until Stafford pukes" (long story) -- I took it in stride though as my JMPI line was always the longest -- the secondary reputation was never miss the DZ and no one got hurt -- good times -- AATW!

It's not like the toilet is in the middle of the activity. It's by the bunk which is behind the 4 ejection seats on upper deck.

Lt Col John (Jack) Christensen I wouldn't know, that is one aircraft I have never been inside.

A tradition pretty much throughout the AF is that the first person to use it has to empty it after landing so that puts a whole different perspective on gotta go!
