The instructor did say these wee the outliers and the majority( both civ and mil) were top notch.
Strange tales like these have been around for years:
-- a guy who refused to do walkarounds, saying "It flew in, it'll fly out."
-- a guy who wouldn't wear black shoes
-- a guy on reserve who wouldn't get a phone
-- a guy who brought a lawyer to his sim check
Hard to believe, but I suppose anything's possible.
