Ya gotta change the summer air... and other left handed advice
Le Chuck:
So PBJ's recent bit of microwave advice and an earlier kanooter valve post got me thinking about all the terrible advice I've given... or occasionally executed. Being an Army guy a lot of these may be a bit jargon-y but we've all done this... may as well share some for - uh - future use ;)
"Go get me a box of grid squares"
"Go ask the Platoon Sergeant if he's seen the Prik-E7" (I did... he helped me find him :badmood: )
"Drain the air from those HMMWV tires and put in winter air... we can't drive on summer air in January!"
"Tell the CO we're out of chemlight batteries"
"Tell tell the LT we're out of blinker fluid for his truck"
"I need you to go down to the motorpool and get me some spark plugs for the CO's HMMWV"
"The flux capacitor is faulty, as 1SG if we can use his"
"I don't understand this order, go ask the CO what's a Bhyutfour"

Heh...we did this one on a field training excercize at Ft. Benning a couple years ago. Our poor victim went and asked at the operations center...we laughed for hours...

My dad used to tell me to get him a left-handed monkey wrench. Although I assume that is what you were alluding to in your title.
I may use "summer air" on my kids. That's pretty good.

We sent people to the gear locker looking for cans of A-I-R.
