How the U.S. F-15s intercepted Russian Bear bombers in the GIUK Gap: tensions and hilarious moments above Iceland.
"Another hilarious moment dates back to the time when one F-15 pilot showed off a Playboy nude centerfold across the expansive side of the Eagle’s canopy, for the Soviet aviators entertainment. Once they saw it, they responded by running the Bear air to air refueling probe (which was encased in a long cylindrical tube extending above the nose and would be run out to clog up into the drogue basket) in and out, and in and out of its protective sleeve."
After try 2, he should have probably just gone to finance. And, you know...be an officer.
ETA I'll be perfectly honest. Officers need to stop playing the victim card so much. Step up to the plate and lead. If something isn't going how it is supposed to, be polite and work your way up the chain. You'd be surprised and how far common courtesy goes.
Some info here, from what I can tell.

Had the chance to meet him in college not too far from where he ran that golf course. There is a pretty nice writeup about him on the portal.
Anyone have updates for this? From doing some searches on the portal, it looks like the program is no longer around. My base no longer has a library, so education office might be the best bet.
