New Marine Recruits walking along the road noticed a car stuck in a mud-filled
ditch. A dull Gunny Sergeant, identifiable by his 'Smokey the Bear' hat, was
attempting to free the vehicle by himself.
"Say, isn't that our drill instructor?" asked one of the group.
"Hey, it is," remarked another. "Think we should give him a hand?"
"Naw," replied the first Marine Newbie, "If he really wants his
car out of that ditch, he'll order it out."
