I "received" mine when I was in the US Air Force. As shift supervisor I could cut back personnel when we had all the work done. One Friday night we had everything done and ZERO "other" stuff to do so one of the kids that worked for me said "hey, lets ask unclebob if we can go". which I did) He said the name just popped up in his head and no we weren't related. It stuck with me for the rest of my AF career, it even preceeded me to some bases. I still use it to this day. bob btw... I really am an uncle too :-)
