Could be used as a practical joke
but I used it as revenge.

At the beginning of a 2 week detachment to what was RAAF Butterworth (Malaysia) in the eighties. We were staying in an old hospital across the road from the base itself.
On the roadside between the two was a good size dead dog, nicely bloated.
Anyway we were running two shifts, and as always some people have to make pricks of themselves while others are trying to sleep. Sleep is hard enough with very high humidity and temperatures, and no aircon.
By the end of the trip, I'd had enough of one of our framies loud obnoxious mouth, so while they were partying on (t'was the last night), I retrieved the previously mentioned dog, using a garbage bag over my arms.
The dog was a mass of decaying flesh and bone and full of maggots.
Taking it back to their room, I could not tell which bed belonged to the offending member, so I compromised and stuck it under a bed instead of in his. I really wish I could have found his bed, as only one person was sober enough to even smell the dog (it really was foul), and it wasn't the one the was a prick. So he would have fallen into bed with it had I found the right one.
Well the guy that sober enough to find it, threw it just outside the door (he really wasn't that sober).
It was quite hilarious watching all the hung over troops retching as they exited their room when the truck stopped to pick them up in the morning. It wa sthe talk for quite some time, and was a well kept secret for a few years, as several others really thought that these pricks deserved what they got.
