Wannabe?
While in the "passage way", "1st Deck", this p.m. I ran into the Command Master Chief, a friend and paratrooper also. He was talking with one of the electricians and the Master Chief says, "Tommy, this guy was Army too, a helo pilot." I said "Cool, did you fly "Slicks or Guns"? He looked at me like I had Crawfish coming out of my ears and says, "Man, I flew Huey's."
He then told the CMC that he was a Warrent Officer but when he told the CO to "kiss his ass and f _ _ k off," they made him a Sergeant. I asked when he was in and he says 73' to 89', and the CMC says before I came up he said he was in Vietnam as a Huey Pilot.
Now my bullshit antenna are at full extend......I'm betting WANNABE!
