A cargo aircraft was preparing for departure from a US Air Force Base in Greenland and the crew were waiting for the truck to arrive so the aircraft's sewage tank could be pumped out.
The aircraft commander was growing impatient
Not only did the truck show up late, the airman carrying out the task was extreemely slow at pumping out the tank,
Finally the commander snapped and vowed to punish the airman for being so slow.
The airman replied, "Sir, I have no stripes, it is twenty degrees below zero, I'm stationed in Greenland miles from civilisation, and I'm pumping sewage out of aircraft. Just what are you going to do to punish me?
