A family friend of my family is taking over command of the Test and Eval Squadron at Nellis AFB and I was wondering what sort of gift we should get him. I have no idea what to get him or even if a gift is appropriate. Any suggestions?

A model F-16/F-22 or (whatever he/she flies) with his/her name on it, mounted on a plaque with a pen holder and maybe a U.S flag.

A helper monkey. No gift would be better than a helper monkey because he not only does chores for you, but he makes them hilarious by virtue of his simian nature.

Because of all the recent accidents at Nellis...

How about a plaque that says:
"Martin-Baker saved my Ass on: <left blank for ejection date>"

Or

When their command is over, give him a plaque that says, "I survived Nellis AFB." (unless they move on to another command at Nellis)

Awesome. Remember that "Bathroom Monkey" they had on SNL? "Monkey hate clean!"

Anyone about to take command on a squadron already has enough desk models to fill a shelf. If you really want to get this guy something, make it personal. What are his hobbies? Does he fish? A nice rod with an engraving, maybe a reel. Cigar enthusiast? Desk humidor, with a few stogies inside and a nice little plaque. Hell, be creative, beer of the month club, a box of good steaks, a bottle of really good scotch...Why not send something cool and different?

If he was a Navy man, I'd say a gift certificate to a nice "ranch"

.

Since he's Air Force, how about tickets to
