I was on the crew for the last flight (season closing / airfield closing) out of Williams Field, McMurdo, Antarctica.
We had the Herc closed up and about ready to taxi on out when one of the pilots said he had to use the head.
We taxied on over by the shitter, the pilot hopped out, ran into the shitter, then ran out and over to the maintenance control building.
After a couple minutes he came out, hopped into the plane and away we went.
That summer the pilot had enough of the Navy and got out.
Before he left he told me to "keep in touch, you'll know why".
The following season opener I was on the second flight into McMurdo.
The first flight had the maintenance master chief on board.
When we were in the bar the previos night the Master Chief had been telling anyone who would listen that he had a cup of coffee waiting for him in his office on the ice.
After the plane shut down we walked back to maintenance.
Standing outside was the Master Chief bitching about some fucker who shit in his coffe cup and left it on his desk...
I knew the story right away..
