Not a recruit--still dumb.

Me (Just after the Change of Command parade this morning): Private, can I have a word with you?

Pte: Yes, Sergeant.

Me: For future reference, just before the padre is about to give the benediction and the order to "Remove Head Dress" is given? Your wedge is held over your heart, not your dick. Got it?

Pte: Yes, Sergeant.

Me: Good. Carry on.
