While I was in the Marines, we got copies of the Air Force Accident
Reports (that may not have been its precise name).

One issue reported an accident that resulted when a crew chief, who
was running up the engines of a C-47 one morning, succumbed to
temptation and went flying. And crashed.

The official cause of the accident was reported as "Lack of Flight
Training."

That's why we referred to the publication as the "Air Force Comics."
