One Sunday
morning, the priest noticed
Little Johnny was staring up at the large
plaque that hung in the
foyer of the church. It was covered with names,
and small American
flags were mounted on either side of it. The
seven-year old had been
staring at the plaque for some time, so the priest
walked up, stood
beside the boy, and said quietly, "Good morning, Little
Johnny."
"Good morning, Father," replied the young man, still focused on
the
plaque. "Father Scott, what is this?" Little Johnny asked.
"Well,
son, it's a memorial to all the young men and women who died in
the
service." Soberly, they stood together, staring at the large
plaque. Little
Johnny's voice was barely audible when he asked,
"Which service, the
9:45 or the 11:15?"

As he was
drilling a batch of recruits,
the sergeant saw that one of them was
marching out of step. Walking
up next to the man as they marched, he said
sarcastically: "Do you
know they are all out of step except you?"
"What?" asked the
recruit innocently.
"I said -- they are all out of step except
you!" thundered the
sergeant.
The recruit replied, "Well, sarge,
you're in charge -- you tell
them!"

A young naval student
was being put
through the paces by an old sea captain. "What would you
do if a sudden
storm sprang up on the starboard?" asked the captain.
"Throw out
an anchor, sir." replied the naval student.
"What would you do
if another storm sprang up aft?" asked the
captain.
"Throw
out another anchor, sir." answered the student.
"And if another
terrific storm sprang up forward, what would you do?"
asked the
captain.
"Throw out another anchor." replied the
student.
"Hold on," said the Captain. "Where are you getting all your anchors
from?"
The naval student replied, "From the same place you're
getting all of
your storms, sir."

Having just moved
into his new office, a
pompous, new colonel was sitting at his desk
when a PFC knocked on
the door.
Conscious of his new position, the colonel quickly picked
up the phone,
told the PFC to enter, then said into the phone,
"Yes, General, I'll
be seeing him this afternoon and I'll pass along
your message. In the
meantime, thank you for your good wishes,
sir."
Feeling as though he had sufficiently impressedthe young enlisted
man,
he asked, "What do you want?"
"Nothing important, sir," the
PFC replied, "I'm just here to hook
up your telephone."

The chief of staff of the US Air
Force
decided that he would personally intervene in the recruiting
crisis
affecting all of our armed services. He directed a nearby Air Force
base that will be opened and that all eligible young men and women be
invited.
As he and his staff were standing near a brand new
F-15 Fighter, a pair
of twin brothers who looked like they had just
stepped off a Marine
Corps recruiting poster walked up to them. The
chief of staff walked up to
them, stuck out his hand and introduced
himself.
He looked at the first young man and asked, "Son, what
skills can you
bring to the Air Force?"
The young man looks
at him and says, "I'm a pilot!"
The general gets all excited,
turns to his aide and says, "Get him in
today, all the paper work
done, everything, do it!"
The aide hustles the young man off.
The general looks at the second
young man and asked, "What s
kills to you bring to the Air Force?"
The young man says, "I
chop wood!"
"Son," the general replies, "we don't need wood
choppers in the Air
Force, what do you know how to do?"
"I
chop wood!"
"Young man," huffs the general, "you are not listening
to me, we
don't need wood choppers, this is the 20th century!"
"Well," the young man says, "you hired my brother!"
"Of
course we did," says the general, "he's a pilot!"
The young man
rolls his eyes and says, "So what! I have to chop it
before he can
pile it!"
