Re: Urinating in a fighter

A little off topic, but I was talking to a ball turret gunner on 17's who told me his navagator used to use the relief tube on every mission. When he did so it would hit his turret, if he was pointed forward the pee would hit his viewing window and freez. He would not be able to see for the rest rest of the mission. So before one mission he turned the outside end of the tube forward. The tube had a U shapped bend on the bottom so a small amount of pee would sit in the tube. When the navagator opened the top of the relief tube he got sprayed with his own stale pee. The navagator was so mad it took 50 years for the gunner to admit it was him who did it. Bob
