> My six-foot-three, 280-pound brother raised his hand and said, "Yes, sir, I

> Our sergeant grabbed him by the arm and led him out in front of the group.
> "Men," he said, "this is my new assistant. Now, is there anyone here who

The sergeant noticed a new recruit & asked him, "Wjhat is your name, private?"

"Sir, it's John, sir," answered the boot.

"YOU LITTLE BASTARD!!! WE ARE NOT AT A TEA PARTY. WE GO BY LAST NAMES ONLY --  OVER THERE IS JOHNSON, & THEN SMITH, ROBERTSON, & BAKER."

I say, "Attention, Baker," & Baker stands to attention.

Now I ask you again, soldier, what is your full name?"

"It's John Daring, sir," answered John.

"Okay, John," replied the sergeant, "What I want you to do is. . ."
