When i was the FNG on the Archerfish, I was selected to repair a valve in one of the sanitary tanks. The senior A gangers were chuckling because they thought it would gross me out. little did they know that i worked as a plumber apprentice before I joined the service and had some experience with sewers and such. So before i climbed into the tank I bought a baby ruth candy bar from the gedunk locker that the yeoman ran and put it in my coverall pocket. So I climb in the **** tank while a few of the other crew looked on and poked fun at me asking me how I like the working conditions etc... I casually replied, "all was fine and was getting hungry". While they kept jeering i took the candy bar out and exclaimed that i found something of Interest and approached the access hatch for them to see and proceeded to eat the candy bar feigning it to be something else entirely. The worm turned on them and they became grossed out. The Corpsman later chewed me out for eating in the sanitary tank, but it was worth the antics I guess. Things we did to entertain ourselves on Subs...
