Air Force Terminology

From Corrine.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The Air Force cargo aircraft pushed back from the gate, the load mistress gave the passengers the usual information regarding seatbelts, etc.
Finally, she said, "Now sit back and enjoy your trip while your Aircraft Commander, Major Judith Campbell, and crew take you safely to your destination."
Sgt. Looper, sitting in the eighth row thought to himself, "Did I hear her right? Is the Major a woman?"
When the cargo crew came by, he said, "Did I understand you right? Is the Major a woman?"
"Yes," said the crewmember, "In fact, this entire crew is female."
"My God," said Sgt. Looper, "I'd better have a tranquilizer. I don't know what to think of all those women up there in the cockpit."
"That's another thing Sarge," she said, "We no longer call it the cock pit."
"It's the Box Office."
