All;
The following is a bit dated, by about 25 years, but was funny at the time and floated around most of the team rooms in one form or another. Modern PC and Zero mistakes put an end to most of the stuff listed below.
"A Green Beret"
After the insecurity of The Second Childhood and during The Maturity Of Man we find the "Green Beret".
"Green Berets" Are found everywhere, In Bars, Behind Bars, Looking Through Police Bars, In Trouble, In Debt, In the Air, On Leave, And in Love.
"Green Berets" Come In Assorted Colors, Sizes, Weights, And States of Sobriety, Misery and Confusion.
Sweethearts Love Them, Mothers Worry About Them, The US Supports Them And Somehow They Manage To Get Along With Each Other. A "Green Beret" Is A Composite With A Weapon, Sly As A Fox, Has The Energy Of A Bull, The Brains Of An Idiot, The Sincerity Of A Priest, The Appetite Of An Elephant, Stories Of Heroes And The Love Of God.
A "Green Beret" is Laziness With A Drink In His Hand, A Millionaire Without A Cent, Bravery With A Grin, The Protector Of America With The Latest Copy Of Playboy Magazine In His Possession At All Times. When He Wants Something It Is Usually A Letter From His Sweetheart, A Three Day Pass, Special Duty, A Jump Or A Little Love.
He Dislikes Answering Letters, His Commanding Officer, Getting Up For Reville, Army Chow, Air Force Reserve Pilots, The Week before Payday, Second Lieutenants, Non-Airborne Personnel And Comments About His 'Beret".
He Loves His Sweetheart, His Mother And His Uniform.........No One Can Say So Little And Wrte So Seldom, Yet Think Of You So Often. No One Can Get So Much Fulfillment Out Of Your Letters, Love, A Song Or A Little Child.
A "Green Beret" Is A Strange Magical Creature......You Can Lock Him Out Of Your House, But Not From Your Heart. You Can Take Him Off Your Mailing List, But Not Out Of Your Mind.
