Heres a few more:
56. Your job is to give the enemy an opportunity to die for his country
57. Transport and Supply often don'; Police always do.
58. Intelligence staff are named for what they seek, not for what they
posses.
59. If the Military Police make you wear your seat belt, and the car
parks
have reserved places, you are out of the combat zone.
60. If the Officers travel economy, the typist travel first class, and
everyone gets a medal, you're on a UN operation.
61. If the High Command says they will leave your unit alone for a while
-
don't believe them.
