Re: The Captain's Red Shirt
The infantry platoon had been in the field for a week. They were tired but were still being pushed hard by the Drill Sergeant.
They took a five minute break, sat down and Jablonski asked the Sergeant; Can we take a little more time and change our shorts?
No! Said the Sergeant. Get up and start marching again men!
Hours went by, and they marched and marched.. and finally took a break again.
Jablonski asked again, please Sarge, can we change our shorts now?
No, the Seargent replied. Back to the march men!
Hours turned into days, and the men marched on.
Finally they stopped again...
And it was Jablonski who pleaded with the Sergeant again. Please, may we finally change our shorts?
OK said the Seargent reluctantly... But we need to make this fast..
So, Jablonksi, you change with Smith. And Jones, you. change with Fellows, and .........
