buttonjockey308, you reminded me of one that used to get our batallion commander’s eyes to bleed. This was my Platoon sergeant’s fave (we were an M.I. unit and so were a slightly different shade of green from the real killers):
747 rolling down the strip
MI Daddy on a TDY Trip
Sit down, buckle in, order up a drink
Say, “Hey steward, whaddaya think?
Whaddaya think about you and I
Joinin’ a club called ‘the mile high?’
Mile high is a club renowned
for rockin’ & rollin above the ground.”
and then:
If’n I was really dumb
I’d go to work in the old S1
Fillin out paperwork all day long
Fillin out paperwork and doin’ it wrong
If I had me a low IQ
I’d go to work in the old S2
Handing out access left and right
Handing out access to the other side
If I had me a low GT
I’d go to work in the old S3
Daily rewrite the SOP
Daily gettin’ troopers pissed at me
If there’s ever a shootin’ war
I wanna work in the old S4
Way back safe behind the lines
Way back safe where the livin’s fine
Of course, S1-4 can be substituted with G1-4 if it’s a Division/Brigade run and the General’s running with the MI unit. Trust me, this can be done without losing rank.
