Devastating Put-DownsAmorous Badger says: I once saw a former manager of mine being asked to 'sit down and let your mouth have a chance to speak' by his senior. What's the best heckle/putdown/riposte you've ever seen? (Hint: Recycled 'Your mum' jokes does not make an answer)

more RAF stuffthe RAF stories reminded me of this one ...
a friend of mine is ex-RAF, originally joining up intending to be a pilot & duly embarking on flying training. by his own admission, he was not the most naturally gifted of aviators - highlights include landing at the wrong airfield during a training flight, & attempting a high-speed pass with his airbrakes on. since he was never going to cut it as a pilot, he was dropped from flight training & went on the have a successful, not-piloting career in the service
some years later, when Freedom of Information, Data Protection, or somesuch thing came in force, he was allowed to see the reoprts submitted by his flight training instructors, which he hadn't been allowed to see at the time. the final report, leading to his being dropped from training read simply:
"***** has all the mental agility of a stunned stoat"
