There is an old story about a group of Yank infantry getting ready for D-Day
drinking in a midlands pub with some B-17 bomber boys. One of the infantry
types told the airmen, "You boys have all the luck. Fly around all day then
come back to England, grab a hot meal, a few drinks at the club and off to a
soft bed!  I'd trade places with any of you!" One of the airman replied,
"Fair enough, buddy!  You go on air crew for me tomorrow!" The infantry puke
said, "What position?"  "Ball turret gunner", replied the fly boy. "You go
straight to hell!" cried the ground pounder!
