* BringMyBrownPants: Barbie's wingman, Bert, took a bird on takeoff. Thankfully, he is uninjured, and the plane is otherwise not damaged. When Barbie gets on the radio with him, [[http://www.afblues.com/wordpress/2010/03/22/03222010/ Bert asks Barbie to get him a new pair of underwear.]]

* KingIncognito: At one point, the colonel's "father" visits the 69th. Dahl needs it spelled out to him that this is in fact a general trying to be discreet.

* MildlyMilitary - To varying degrees depending on the character. Coffman is usually being a pain in Barbie's ass over various uniform violations due to their being on opposite ends of this spectrum.

* EarWorm: In-story example. Coffman shows up to work with Train's "Hey Soul Sister" stuck in his head. He mentions this to Barbie, [[http://www.afblues.com/wordpress/2010/05/17/youve-been-songfcked/ who gets it stuck in his head as well.]] The author refers to this as being "songf*cked".

** Not to mention Ken "Barbie" Dahl. Or so we are lead to believe. [[spoiler: Barbie actually got the name after deciding, while on furlough and drunk off his ass, that [[{{Music/Aqua}} "Barbie Girl"]] was the greatest song ever and spent most of the night badgering the DJ to play it.]]

* MultipleChoicePast: TSgt. Drain keeps telling his coworkers outlandish stories of how he lost half an ear. This backfires when he says he visited a risque entertainer but forgot his wallet, so he paid the entertainer--a huge Van Gogh fan--with half of his ear; Barbie confirms that the entertainer is a real person.
--> Oh, yeah. The "Starry Night Senorita". Some of my students have had run-ins with her.

* BitingTheHandHumor: Comes closer than you'd ever think a public affairs officer (PAO) would ever be allowed to, but the dismissal of the Air Force Chief of Staff (military officer) and secretary (civilian official) resulted in a three-panel strip consisting of the author (voiced through Barbie) explicitly refusing to cover it: "NOT GONNA HAPPEN."
