Troops easy marching back from lunchtime. The sgt's in a real good mood, but since this is a training course he's supposed to give us a hard time anyway.
He starts asking the men at random whether they shaved that morning (it's an offense not to shave) and whether they used an electric razor for that (apparently 5 o'clock shadow sets in faster if you do)
Then he asks me (I'm female): "Reise did you shave this morning?"
"No, Sergeant"
"Why not?"
Brain spins furiously. Then: "I couldn't find any facial hair to shave, Sergeant"
Without missing a beat, he retorts "I'm pretty sure I can find some"
The course erupts into a handful of badly muffled choking noises from people holding in laughter. I guess you kind of had to be there........
(FWIW No, I didn't and still don't have any facial hair........)
