Callsign "Fingers"

I was one of the earlier female flight surgeons, especially to a fighter squadron. On arrival at Kunsan I was assigned to the 35TFS SME. I held my breath as I heard the two callsigns in the running were "fingers"---come on, you all know why, and I actually have extremely small hands, even for a female----and "nurse" because that is what everyone assumed I was when I got off the bus from Osan. I think it is safe to admit now, I HATED the thought of "nurse". One of the pilots who arrived at the same time went with me as we did most of the early errands we had to do: buy party suits, sweep shirts, etc...his callsign was "flounder"... a la Animal House. I told him once I hated that they had put no effort into his callsign. He said, well, it was better than the alternative, "Colonel". Why "colonel"? Since we were together so much...as in the KFC statement, finger licking good. I also prefered "Flounder" after that.
