Booze, broads, carousing and Corvettes.............
I was in an Air Force fighter wing and I can tell you not all fighter pilots have this kind of personality.
Only about 80%.

ROTFLOL! Seriously, back then in Naval Aviation it seemed more like 99%. Those ‘good old days’ (if they ever were, didn’t seem so at the time) are gone forever. And speaking of Corvettes - when we commissioned the Naval Aviation Museum in Pensacola in ‘75 or ‘76, Alan Shepard just HAD to have a Corvette as his rental car. It was the image thing.
