The Marine General's inspection visit could not have gone better.
The General himself was personally skilled with firing weapons and, in the past, had won every marksman award the Marines had to offer.

While working with one Marine, the General quizzed him how many rounds should be fired at one time. "SIR! Six to eight, SIR."

"Very good, Marine. How do you calibrate that weapon to fire six to eight rounds?"

The Marine hesitated a little bit, then said, "SIR! Would you be offended if I told you how we calibrate our weapons when I was in the Fleet Marine Force?"

"No, of course not, son."

"SIR! We pull the trigger and say, 'Die, mother **cker, die,' as it takes 6 to 8 rounds to say that."

P.S.

I left an empty milk container in the refrigerator in the Slop Shute, just in case anyone preferred their coffee, black.
