The F4's made some serious noise. When I was in the Air Guard we'd have exercises where other ANG groups would play the aggressors, and we'd do everything as if we were really at war.

@Type R: Light-hearted? I think not. True enough the crap wouldn't have any lasting effect on my hand, but I still wouldn't appreciate the joke, nor would you if you were on the receiving end. And woe to you if you were the one playing the joke and I caught you; that would have some lasting effect.
@Isetta: Bring it. ;o)
