My callsign is my login, Bruzilla. I got it during a det to Kadena, Okinawa. My crew and I were in this store, and I turned a corner and ran smack into a Japanese couple who looked to be in their 70s or so. I'm 6'6" tall, and they were about five feet even or so, and my appearance really startled them as seeing someone taller than about 5'6" in Japan was pretty rare (there are pictures of me all over Japan. Everytime I was out on the street, people would ask if I would allow them to have their picture taken with me. It was wierd.).

So this elderly Japanese man points up at me and starts saying something in Japanese, and his wife starts yammering back, and my crew is just cracking up because they said it looked like a scene from a Godzilla movie where the Japanese citizens are pointing up and saying "Godzilla!" So, since my first name is Bruce, they changed it to Bruzilla and I've had that callsign ever since.

I can just picture that.......ahhh Godzilla!!!!!
