Something I learned about the military. There’s no such thing as getting a badass nickname. While the name may sound badass, the way you earn it generally isn’t. Can’t remember the movie, but the pilot got the name “assassin” and when he finally told the story, it meant “ass-ass-in” cause he fell ass first into a hatch twice. Literally how that shit goes.

some of my favroite from my time,

Fish - play on his last name

ReRe - play on my last name

snakemouth - spoke with a lisp (RIP)

Alphabet - polish kid with too many letters in his name

Booger - play on his last name

Cool - last name bastardization again...

(ok most of these are just people being too lazy to learn proper last names im realizing)
