A guy I know told me a couple of crazy navy stories from the 1990's (on the USS Nimitz IIRC).

One prank involved dropping liquid acid (lsd) on a sleeping crewman, and how they'd wake up all freaked out, and certainly out of it.
They called it ghosting.

If you're familiar with acid and have a strong mind, then it would be shitty, and would certainly mess up your day.

Anyone without both of these criteria would probably experience the rude awakening of their life.

Military life differs significantly from civilian expectations.
