I am currently stationed in Egypt, on the MFO tour. This major faux pas occured about 6 or 7 months back. I was on the phone with a MAJ with the Force Engineer Office. I was in North Camp while he was in South Camp, about 1000 kilometers away. Unfortunately for the both of us, we were both having bad days with various missions going all Murphy on us. To top things off, the comms between North and South were in and out all day (Egyptian communications not being what they are in the US). Halfway through our conversation, which by that time was just short of both of us yelling at each other (BTW I am only a SGT), I heard a distinctive click and then silence over the phone. I thought he had hung up on me in anger (it wouldn't be the first time and I doubted it would be the last). I looked up at my Captain who was sitting at the desk next to mine and said "The mo**** F***** just hung up on me." The Captain just shook her head and tried to speak. Before she could say anything, I heard over the phone, "No, the mo**** F***** did not!"
Needless to say, I was quite embarressed and began to apologize profusely while my Captain laughed her tail off.
