I know mine was when we kidnapped the phase banner of our rival platoon and placed it in the middle of the field across from our drill pad.

Not sure it's my favorite, but is my most memorable.
Had a kid that wasn't cut out for the job and was getting separated. He told the DS to perform a physically impossible feat.
On April 1st, in front of the Battery, the DS read him the findings from the Commander and that he was being given an Art 15 and was to be extended until the completion of restriction and extra-duty... Then when the kid was in tears, told him April Fool's and handed him his clearing papers.
