Seeing the Wizard
In the military, particularly at a military school, one "see's the wizard" when sleep deprived and worked to great physical and mental exhaustion. "Seeing the wizard" can refer to a hallucination (often with NVG), or passing out cold in the middle of an exercise or a ruck march. Seeing the Wizard is not something you want to do, because you've effectively been rendered incapable of properly performing any tasks ; and if you haven't seen the wizard, your instructor probably knows plenty of people that have.

Joe 3: Yeah, and all those monkeys with hats swinging from those trees way off are really bothering me.
Joe 2: ...What?
Joe 1: Don't mind him. He's seeing the wizard.
