I WAS STATIONED AT COMNAVFE TOKYO IN THE 50'S WAS ASSIGNED TO THE SWITCHBOARD TEMPORERLY.  THERE WERE TIMES WE WOULD HAVE TO PLACE A CALL TO ATSUGI NAS

WHEN THE JAPANESE OPERATOR ANSWERED SHE SAY ATSUUUUUUGIIII, IT SOUNDED LIKE SOMEONE GOOSED HER WHEN SHE ANSWERED.  WE WOULD CALL THERE JUST TO GET HER TO ANSWER FOR A GOOD LAUGH.  SPEAKING OF FLIGHT SKINS, I WAS RIGHT OUT OF BOOT CAMP AND FLOWN TO JAPAN, AN OLD TIMER SAID WHEN I FILL OUT FLIGHT INFO "MAKE SURE YOUR IN THE AIR AT MIDNITE" THAT WAY YOU WILL GET MORE MONEY FOR FLIGHT SKINS,

AND ME BEING A DUMB BOOT THOUGHT I WAS GOING TO GET A LEATHER JACKETS.  DUH.
