Pararescue Specialists..about as hard core as the Air Force gets.I thought pj’s were pajamas.
Considering the book I'm reading just now I should have keyed to thatPararescue Specialists..about as hard core as the Air Force gets.
And folks.... Is why I don't drink alcohol.On the last day of school before Christmas break, the children
brought gifts for their teacher. The supermarket manager's daughter
brought the teacher a basket of assorted fruit.
The florist's son brought the teacher a bouquet of flowers.
The candy-store owner's daughter gave the teacher a pretty box of
candy.
Then the liquor-store owner's son brought up a big, heavy box.
The teacher lifted up the box and noticed it was leaking a bit
And left a wet spot on her desk. She touched a drop of the liquid
with her finger and tasted it.
"Is it wine?" she guessed.
"No," the boy replied. She tasted another drop and
asked, " Champagne ?"

"No," said the little boy............."It's a puppy!
(IF the fictional teacher thinks that liquid tasted like fine wine.... Well what do you think fine wine tasts like?)
Not parachute, para rescue.(Parachute Jumper is what I assume PJ stands for)
Hmmm... PJ=Para Rescue. Granted that PR is the current designation (and long term in the past too) but the J has to stand for Jump, somewhere along the line, like Smokejumpers, etc.Not parachute, para rescue.
The term "Para Jumper" is a retronym of the initials "PJ" which represent the Military Duty Identifiers; P =Parachutist and J= Diver,[28] that were used on an Air Force Form 5 (Aircrew Flight Log) to identify anyone who is on board in order to jump from the aircraft. Pararescuemen originally had no "in-flight" duties and were listed only as "PJ" on the Form 5. The pararescue position eventually grew to include duties as an aerial gunner and scanner on rotary wing aircraft, a duty now performed by aerial gunners. Currently, aircrew qualified Pararescuemen are recorded using aircrew position identifier "J" ("Pararescue Member") on the AFTO form 781.[29]Hmmm... PJ=Para Rescue.
