  1. Always get a chuckle out of the phrase "In HARM's way" based on an incident that happened some years ago. Back in the Gulf War, a USAF F-4 Phantom II accidentally fired an anti-radiation missile (the kind you would use to target enemy radar stations, called the HARM missile) at a friendly B-52 after the bomber, which was then outfitted with a tail-gunner, now removed, likewise thought the F-4 was a bandit, specifically an Iraqi MiG. There were no casualties on either side and the B-52 returned to service, but was renamed (and had painted on her fuselage) "In HARM's Way" named after the missile.
