After 11 years in the Air Force, it's changed several times. In Basic Training, it was "Airman Shitbag", but that was everyone's name. "B1Vaporhead", because my career is in Fuel System Repair. I fix the pumps and manifolds, make the jet fuel go to the engines, crawl around inside the fuel tanks of aircraft fixing leaks. In my field, we're all commonly known as "vaporheads" ;) Since I work the B-1 Bomber at the moment, bang-zoom, there you have it. Better than "GasHuffer", don't you think?! hehehe
