Typical Navy Officer Problem

After landing, new ensign wrote up this complaint about an A-7 that he had just finished flying, “Pilot relief tube too short.”
(The pilot relief tube is a device that allows a male pilot to relieve himself in flight if he’s had a little too much coffee before climbing into the cockpit.)
When Maintenance investigated the squawk, they found that the relief tube was tangled around the base of the stick. After correcting the problem, they gave the pilot’s chain (and probably his ego) a good yank by signing off the maintenance form like this:
“Pilot relief tube found to be of sufficient length for enlisted personnel.”
