Callsign of the day
Callsign "Harm"
I was on a bar overcrowded with some friends of the 92nd squadron (A-4 skyhawk pilots) and they started joking with a girl so i tried to be polite with her but instead I ''accidentaly'' throw the f*cking glass I was grabbing on her chest - I don't know how, someone hit me or pushed me... Well the fact is that I hit her real hard so I earned that nickname. Ain't so bad I think.
