My favorite Stewart story was the time a few of his people stole a keg of
beer
from the officer's club.

J. Stewart got a mach + ride in a B-58 Hustler. His remark during the climb
out was so unlike the Jimmy Stewart we all came to know. "This is not an
airplane, it's a G. Damn rocket." They lost the AB on one engine yet the AC
managed to get him above mach one in a slight dive with three in max AB.
