Do As I Say, Not As I Do (Take 2)

OUR AIR FORCE SQUADRON was about to depart on a joint training exercise with the Danish air force, and our squadron leader gave us strict orders not to break the sound barrier. But on a low-level pass over Denmark, our commander himself accidentally exceeded the speed of sound, shattering several windows in houses below, and thus became the only pilot to violate his own order.

As his F-100 touched down on the runway back at the base, he was greeted by a large banner that read: WELCOME HOME, BOOM-BOOM!
