Yeah, I laughed for days about that one. I think it was like a $30,000 system, too. Never ship an unmarked box to a military facility... :-)

Here's another.

RAF Croughton, UK, 1980. A purposely unnamed officer noticed a "suspicious package" laying on the floor outside the British Postal Office - aka telephone office, which was housed in our building. EOD was called, and they put on quite a show, including detonating the package in a field a few hundred feet away.

The result was pink, blue and white confetti from the package of billing forms!
