Oh dear, Dustin. You've gone to all that effort to dig up a 2006 post,
and you still managed to miss the dry British military humour completely.

Anyone who has served knows that "before I kill someone other than the
enemy" is a classic, self-deprecating joke about the sheer difficulty of
fast-jet training. It's how we laugh about the brutal pipeline that
washes out the vast majority of students.

There was no drama, no scandal, and no "kick out"—just a standard
administrative transfer to Air Traffic Control, followed by a very
successful 20-year naval career and promotion to Lieutenant Commander.

I’m happy to let my official service record and logbook stand against
your colourful imagination!
