My grandson saw a picture from my Basic Training Book from back in 1970. It was of a bunch of us cleaning our mess kits in garbage cans. He said:
"Pop-Pop, are those garbage cans?"
"Yes."
"You mean you cleaned your dirty dishes in a garbage can?"
"Yes."

He closed his eyes for thirty seconds, opened them and said:

"The Army is weird."

Agreed!

As you crawl down the line taking your shower, if you slip and land on your face, and get injuired, you then will recieve an Article-15, for distuction of government property. Lol
