[edit] Other Modern uses...

While in the US NAVY it was frequently the term we used to describe the inpromptu tours and demos of aircraft systems during airshow static displays, VIP tours, and informal visits by seniors in our chain of command. I believe the practice continues to this day and probably crosses to other services as well.

The big issue here is finding a suitable reference citation to support what I know to be true. Why waste my time when some wiki-big brother who doesn't care a hoot about accuracy of the article wants to make a name for himself as the enforcer of wiki rules. Those rules quite frankly get a bit rediculous... IMO. Oh well, perhaps someone can find a satisfactory ref to quote... Thanks
