I belong to a Joint Service unit at Scott AFB.  Once a month the Army folks 
gather at 0600 to do PT and then run 3.5 miles in formation.  On any Army 
base an officer would be in serious trouble for running troops through the 
housing area because it would disturb the families.  At Scott our DCINC,
LTG Hubert Smith, lead us past the houses of all 17 General Officers on base 
while chanting Army cadence.  Someone asked him how he could get away with 
that.  (He has 3 stars but there is an Air Force 4 star on base.)  He said 
whenever the Air Force types comment on the noise of the jets next to the 
housing area they call it the sound of freedom.  LTG Smith said he just wants 
everyone to know what "the real sound of freedom" sounds like.  It sounds 
like our soldiers, (and sailors, airmen, and marines).
