I believe that during WWII there was a specially employed
lady, complete with tattoos presumably, whose task it was to
tighten the set-screws on all military equipment. She did such a
good job that nobody except a certain candidate for the
governorship of California has since been able to move them.

As one who converted a lot of WWII surplus gear for Amateur Radio use, I often
hoped the guy who invented Glyptol got sealed in his coffin with the stuff.
