Worse Punishment?
An Air Force cargo plane was preparing for departure from
Thule Air Base in Greenland. They were waiting for the truck to arrive
to pump out the aircraft's sewage holding tank.
The Aircraft Commander was in a hurry, the truck was late in
arriving, and the Airman performing the job was extremely slow in
getting the tank pumped out.
When the commander berated the Airman for his slowness and
promised punishment, the Airman responded: "Sir, I have no stripes, it
is 20 below zero, I'm stationed in Greenland, and I am pumping sewage
out of airplanes. Just what are you going to do to punish me?"
