Now those two I have seen!
From the original list, really I've usually only ever seen variations on quiet guy - though I have had recent opportunity to meet a variation on cammo-man...
This is an important part of "being a good student". I have read some threads where individuals were going on and on about some of the stuff that LAV had said in one of his classes - and they themselves had never been in one of Larry's classes.
It's not a big deal. It's humorous. It's meant to get your attention. The overwhelming majority of participants have some type of military in their background, and many are LEO's contractors, active duty, etc. Most of these guys are used to this sort of thing. You can't be a delicate lily and expect to participate in a group comprised mostly of Alpha types. If you can't take criticism or you feel yourself about to tear up because the instructor asked you how "the window tastes" - maybe you shouldn't be doing this kind of training.
Be a good student, cowboy up, roll with the punches and laugh with the rest of the students. If your instructor is calling you some creative names, it's because he's trying to get your attention in order to help you.
