All paratroopers seem to delight in singing "Blood on the Risers" to
the music of "Battle Hymn of the Republic" - about a rookie trooper's
final jump. The chorus starts out: "Gory, gory, what a hellova way to
die / He ain't gonna jump no more..."

While doing PLF's off the mantel/bar/landing/table of any suitable "O" or
"NCO" club, just prior to closing time.

Marines practicing "carrier landings" on tables, bar tops, etc.
