Went through basic with Adm. Zumwalt's Great Nephew (or some such thing - his dad was the Adm's nephew) and you wouldn't believe the amount of flack he caught for having the same last name.
Wonder how often he used his name over the phone to get something done in his career? Worked like a champ for Herman Goering's brother.
I had an RM1 in my division whose last name was Skipper (true no schnitt story here). He never actually said he was "THE skipper" from the 640, but you can fill in the blanks.
