Okay... I'm going to share one with you after I read the above.
The Navy destroyer I was sttioned on tied up in Naples, Itlay at the concrete quay. Normaly tie up away from there. Have to take the ship's boat in, rather than just walk ashore via the gangway.
One of the guys putting up the rat guards forgot one. A Huge Norwegian/Naples Rat got aboard, crawled up in one of the vents and died.
We could smell it all over the ship. The Captain made an announcement over the PA system. If one of the short skinny people will volunteer to go into the duct work and get it out; gloves, OBA, trash bag; will be provided, he will get 4 days leave in Rome, Italy.
So, one guy went up in the duct work. Rope tied around his waist. Good thing as he got stuck.
Took about an hour. He got it out. He went on liberty and got in so much trouple the Captain said he would never offer liberty/leave for such a task again.
But at least that ship permeating smell was gone.
