About 2 years ago, while having a bite to eat and some vodka, we were sitting at the bar and a newly retired Bull Colonel sat next to Mrs. Dingpatch. He had been a SpecOps pilot at Eglin AFB, mostly flying C-130s to deliver "packages" of SF personnel. So, of course, he and she striked up a good old AF talk. Did this, done that, been here, been there. She got into a little bit of what she did in the AF. He asked her, in a strong way, ", , , , what are you talking about?" She explained the level of her clearances and experiences and he thought she was very incorrect. He knew all about clearance levels, because he had been in SpecOps. She told him in a fairly direct way that he had only been an "expendable tactical asset" and, as such, he really wasn't cleared. He was pretty upset! She got up to go to the ladies room, and he asked me what the hell she thought she was talking about. I gave him a little more "background" and he was like ", , , , Oh, I can't talk to her, , ,", he got up and went to sit at another part of the bar.
