[Qcwa] Fw: Chief Petty Officers and Popes

[Bob Wilder]

Loved the story..Passed to all on my friends...Reminded me of an incident that happened in
1956 while I was stationed at NAS Midway Island.  I was part of a special operation of the
USAF and people of our group were tasked for mess attendant (KP) duty in the base galley.
A very young USAF airman was told by the Chief who ran the galley he would clean out the
grease traps which the airman refused to do.  The Chief asked him if he knew who he (the Chief)
was upon which he got the replay, "You are nothing more than an AF MSgt with the s**t kicked
out of him".  You can guess how the Chief took that remark.  The airman spent some time in
the brig and was sent back to the states.
