A Little Humor: A Young Man With A Navy Recruiter

A goofy young man visited a U.S. Navy recruiter on his 18^th birthday. 

The recruiter, a tough, old chief petty officer, asked the young man if he could swim. 

“Why, aren’t there enough ships?”

The recruiter then asked the young man if he would be interested in submarine duty.

“Hell, no,” the young man said. “I ain’t getting on any ship that sinks on purpose.”

The exasperated recruiter then asked him why he wanted to join the Navy.

“Well, my uncle thought my joining the Navy would be a good idea.”

“What does your uncle do for a living?” the recruiter asked.

“He’s in the Army.”
