Post; You Know You're Overselling the Army When...


ONE COLD, WINDY February morning during my Army basic training at Fort Bliss, Texas, our company was assembled outside. There, at parade rest, we were forced to listen to an endless procession of individuals extolling the benefits of Army life.

The last person to speak droned on about the insurance program. When the ordeal was nearly over, he asked if there were any questions. From the rear of the formation, a shivering voice inquired, "Will the insurance cover frostbite?"
