Harm

I was on a bar overcrowded with some friends of the 92nd squadron (A-4 skyhawk pilots) and they started joking with a girl so i tried to be polite with her but instead I ''accidentaly'' throw the f*cking glass I was grabbing on her chest - I don't know how, someone hit me or pushed me... Well the fact is that I hit her real hard so I earned that nickname. Ain't so bad I think.

Hipshot

Given by an A-7 driver while in Korat, Thailand in the early 1970s. He seemed to think I offered opinions without thinking. Some think I haven't changed in over 30 years!

Homer

When our wing commander had told us that we were going to run 10 kilometres, I subsequently said: "Do'h!", catching the wing commanders attention. He was staring at me with a perplexed look on his face for like thirty seconds. After I was punished with a lot of push-ups, I got the callsign Homer.

The literal transition in Spanish means "Eggs"! The slang translation would be "Balls". I received this call sign after graduating from pilot training based on my attempt of numerous flying accolades albeit safe, but very daring! It also rhymes with my last name!!
