The problem I’ve gotten into with that is I’ll get a response, but it always ends up being (something like) “flight equipment secretary” and other such garbage which is a real position but... that’s where they put you when you can’t tie your own damn shoes. I never know quite where to go at that point.

Yeah, it can get tricky. The funniest one for me was the Army Lance Corporal who was telling his Desert Storm war stories. He didn't even realize that Lance Corporal is strictly a Marine Corps rank and that it isn't used in the Army.
