Hey I was in the Airforce and I resemble that joke. :D
Here's one for from the airforce point of view.
A few C-130 pilots and some airborne solders end up in the same bar and after a few beers the boldest of the paratroopers loudly proclaims, "Man those C-130 must be terrible airplanes, why they pay the pilots more to stay in them, than they pay us to jump out of them". "No" one of the pilots replied calmly "They just figure if you're dumb enough to jump out of a perfectly good airplane, you're probably dumb enough to take less money for it"
