I made some slip of decorum in basic training, back when the TI could swear about you, your momma, and the dog all in impolite conversation.

Anyway, realizing my gaff, I'm at attention when Sgt Hunt, and little Mexican guy with a Clarke Gable mustache, gets on his tippy toes and pushes that 'mokey bear hat into my face and whispers "you've got the brains of a fckin' plant Airman!"

I lost my military bearing and started laughing, which set him off and it went downhill from there....
