JOKE
A MAN JOINS THE ARMY AND WANTS A THREE DAY PASS AND HE GOES TO HIS
CAPTAIN AND THE CAPTAIN SAYS "YOU HAVEN'T DONE ANYTHING YET. WHEN
YOU'VE DONE SOMETHING THEN COME BACK AND ASK FOR A THREE DAY PASS."
SO HE WENT OUT AND COMES BACK WITH A GERMAN TANK AND THE CAPTAIN
SAYS "WOW, HOW DID YOU DO THAT?" AND THE SOLDIER SAYS "WELL, I SAW
THIS GERMAN IN A TANK AND I GOT OUT OF MY TANK AND I SAID 'HEY DO
YOU WANT A THREE DAY PASS' SO WE TRADED TANKS."
