In 1999 or 2000, the US Air Force released one of its first television 
recruiting ads (up to this point, recruiting ads that mentioned the Air 
Force were invariably joint ads that mentioned all four services).  The 
ad consisted of majestic music, played over scenes of various aircraft 
doing various cool things.

In 2001 or so, a group of servicemen in the Air Force did their own 
version of this.  It featured airmen sweeping hangars, taking out the 
trash, and submitting samples for urinalysis, with the same music 
playing over it.

The senior leadership was not amused, but everyone whose career did not 
depend on the senior leadership's favor was most surely amused.

Regards,
John
