  Missed a trick by not having super fun happy slides, in my opinion. Would make the soldiers day more fun.

  This incorrect. This is actually the Big-Extra-Emergency-Retrocopter Model CV19. It's a final training flight before it is deployed to ship hopeful part-time drinkers from Leicester to Ashby-de-la-Zouch at 6am sharp tomorrow morning.
