I just remember another "emergency landing" from my military days in the early 60s.

During our female unit's first "trip" in the High-Altitude Simulator, we had just switched to pressure breathing, when we noticed that one of our comrade's chest had begun to expand dramatically. We were laughing so hard that we literally could not "breath" in enough oxygen. Suddenly the voice of the medical observer comes over the intercom, "Lt. Smith (name changed to protect the guilty), we will now return ground level and request that you retire to the ladies room and remove any nonregulation paraphernalia, so we may continue this exercise with dignity."

The incident still brings a smile to my face when I think of it.

Please let me know if this story is too risque for the board and I will delete it. It was just so funny at the time.
