Santa Claus

[Backpacker1uk]

Ok just returned from a heated debate which nearly came to blows.

Mainly from the mates kids when I told them Santa was dead due to the workload from the factories in China.

Tell me to feck off if you wish but will the big red cloaked grey bearded guy with the sack be around this year.

Myself I was told Santa was killed in a lift in Littlewoods stores in Liverpool few years back hence feck all for the last few years and I have been sorta good. Loada crap if you ask me.

I do know there are many here who know different with being on the ARCTIC AND MOUNTAIN WARFARE COURSE you must have seen the red cloaked guy doing his pre start checks for Christmas.

Lots of little people here waiting for your answer. Including the nephew!

Lol and this has what to do with Royal Navy newbie-information?

when i go operational, I do logisitics.......I am one of santa's naval agents. the ol guy is still operational, in fact the govrnment is looking into licencing the rights to santa's sliegh for military air lift capability, obviously not over the xmas period.
unlimited lift capability, STOL and unlimited range along with unlimited high speed and time freezing capability.
it is understood that the RAF are very, very intrested

If you are in doubt and you are deployed at the mo, check with your nearest friendly ATC/ATLO on arrangements for air clearance over your theatre. you will be looking for flight SANTA101.

enjoy,

Backpacker, read my 'sticky' at the top of Current Affairs. It tells you what Current Affairs is about... and it isn't this.

Moved to Lil's.

Trouble is from the military perspectinve, he's not particularly stealthy; every year NORAD pick up his tracks and display them on the web for the world to see!

ah our american cousins.....bless, ever alert to defend the free world....

on the question of stealth this is not an issue of course he's stealthy, it's just that he has IFF transponder which is why we know to look for SANTA101...........

Santa even came to my ship once. The Bosuns' mate of the watch even piped him aboard:
"Now on board the USS John F Kennedy: Santa, arriving!"

Made a good landing, too. Heavy sea, and a pitching deck, and still snagged a 3-wire. Born Naval Aviator.

(My present was a little disappointing, though: A MK-76 25lb practice bomb, wrapped in red ribbon. Had to give it back for a drop-ex 2 days later )

 

[Streaky]

Did you get to sit on his knee, Bootneck?

Nah, I had desk-duty in the ready-room. But I did catch a glimpse of him.
He looked alot like the flight deck Bosun. Maybe they're related.

He probably won't get into the States unless he's had his fingerprints and iris scan added to his passport. (Unless he goes over the Mexico border)

Santa ain't goin' nowhere....!! here he is in my shed at the bottom of the garden and i ain't letting him out till i get paid the ransom!! :twisted: :twisted:

 

[jesse650]
