Staff, etc.,
Saw this today and had to chuckle, thought perhaps those of you former or present folks associated with the Big Boomers might enjoy it as well.
Thanks a million for all those that have served from those of us that can't or couldn't!

One day in artillery instruction, a Colonel came to inspect the class. First up was Private O’Hara. The Colonel got in his face and asked him what reading he had on his 105 mm. howitzer. “Two- nine-oh-seven, sir,” was the reply.
“Soldier,” said the Colonel, “don’t you know you never say ‘oh’ in the Artillery? You say ‘zero.’ What’s your name, soldier?”
He saluted, smiled and proudly replied "Private Zero Hara, Sir!"
