<p>[QUOTE=&quot;abe, post: 769692, member: 19570&quot;]At the time it was not funny, but now I find it hillarious.. On the Carrier in the boiler room there is a tradition, its called butt packing.. Its an initiation for all the new sailors who are new to the job.. The last person to get their butt packed got the honors of doing the next butt packing.</p><p>The material used was simple and on hand at all times.. GPG ( general purpose grease), cigarette butts, coffee grounds, spit, bilge scum, and whatever else was on hand.. all this was mixed together into a nice creamy substance, hmm..&nbsp; It is carefully decided when it was your time..</p><p>When the time was right, your good buddies would surround you, string you up by your ankles, hang you upside down, pull your pants UP for the world to see..(not really, we&#039;re 7 stories under water).. The last person to get their butt packed had a fieldday with your booty, smearing, packing, while your were screaming &amp; cussing.. When you finally got lowered to the deck, everyone scatters because you are MAD.. You get to shower after your packing and you have one thing on your mind.. I wanna pack someone..&nbsp; But every now&amp;then there was a random packing just for the airdales who where curious enough and coaxed into visiting the boiler room&nbsp; by an airdale who was dumb enough to actually want a tour of a boiler room.. They would scream and cry to their superiors, and the chief engineer would smack us on the hand with a grin on his face.. After all these years I still wonder if the tradition still carries on...[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
