That reminds me of a story I heard about an officer in Vietnam who
ordered a
bombardment of a hill.	When the artillery finished, there was one tree
left; so he ordered an airstrike.  Still there afterwards, so called for
a
naval strike.  Eventually one of the enlisted men walked over to the
hill
with a chainsaw and finished the job so they could get some rest.
