Back in my day, the radar NCO sent a kid to the supply room to get a set of fallopian tubes.
Being the asshole I am, I called the hospital and (she was my neighbor off post) asked for a certain nurse and told her what was going on.
Five minutes later she arrived at the supply room and escorted little Pv2 whasisname back to the radar section room.
"Sergeant, I brought my fallopian tubes along with me. I hope you'll be gentle with them, as I have grown quite attached to them."
You shoulda seen the look on his face!!!!
When Top heard about it, he didn't know what to do with me. (1SG's dileimma: trying to chew ass and laugh at the same time)
The Battery Commander laughed himself silly when he heard about it.
