I once had to program the computersIn a bunker at the end of a live tank firing range. The dangerous end of the range, that is!
I couldn't decide if it was the coolest job ever, or the dumbest to even show up for.

Backstops.... I've worked on the backstops of a Military rifle range. Hours hauling these things up and down by bloody hand, trying to spot the new hole amongst the miriad of others and all the while to the crack of supersonic bullets, and the occasional "Brrrrrrrrrrr-Thwump" of the subsonic black powder bullets buzzing over like a bee on speed.....
