MY FRIEND'S SISTER-IN-LAW was driving home in her large station wagon with her five children and the four that she baby-sits. All nine kids were yelling and playing. While she was waiting at a stoplight, an Army truck full of soldiers pulled up next to her. Just before the light turned green, she yelled "Quiet!" and the nine children stopped in mid-sentence. Driving away, she turned and noticed that all the soldiers were saluting her.
