In the Army Now - The joy of the Armed ForcesI've never been a soldier. I was an air cadet once, but that mostly involved sitting in a mouldy hut learning about aeroplane engines with the hint that one day we might go flying.
Yet, anyone who has spent time defending their nation, or at least drinking bromide-laced-tea for their nation, must have stories to tell. Tell them now.

Not seen it happen, but.....It could work in theory...
I've heard several stories about the high powered radar systems used by the airforce. For those who don't know, these are very expensive microwave ovens that you can point at targets.
Apparently to check if the full power settings work on some of the systems, the techies wait until anything with feathers flys in front of the antenna system before applying power.
Switch on and POOF!!!! one pigeon cooked in half a second.
now that has got to be fuking funny to watch!!!
