There's an female NFO by the name SUMAT. Same story. Fly have you hung on to yours??? :icon_tong
Probably the same one. I can't remeber if it was a pilot or NFO and SUMAT / SUMART are close enough to be the same. I just thought it was an awesome name.

I wonder if he's an AW member? :D It's funny how a few zappers and a little effort can make a celebrity out of some dumb looking guy.

...............hmmmmmm, callsigns huh? Knew a guy who checked into my HSL squadron - called himself "Scrapper" for his basketball skills and "can-do" "always a team player" attitude. It didn't take long for everyone to realize that this guys real callsign should be "Crapper." Rule #1 - don't give yourself a callsign. Rule #2 - never question or oppose a callsign given to you by your wardroom.

I almost told the whole story and scanned in the zapper but I think that would diminish the whole Yeti legend. It's kind of odd but I think everyone knows when and where they were when they first saw The Yeti (I was at the Iwakuni O'Club). Kind of like when OJ was running from the cops. Plus, I don't want to ruin it for those who haven't seen it for themselves. It's interesting working with someone that everybody knows because of a few (thousand) zappers.
