Carl Hughes - Lesson for the Captain - Segment 6

Captain is Surprised

Whenever the team arrived before three P.M at the company Headquarters, you could be sure that your name would be on the guard roster. It was like fresh meat had arrived. It didn't matter that when you were out on assignment you did all of your own guard duty without fresh meat arriving. Well now, there was a Captain who liked to snoop. We will leave out his name but he was snooping around the motor pool in the dark. The sentry heard him and challenged him with a "Halt! Who goes there?" as he threw a round into the chamber. Now that is a very sobering sound. There wasn't much more formal guard talk like, advance x paces to be recognized. The only thing the sentry heard was an excited, "It's me!" and that's the last he saw of the Captain." think he had to change his pants!
