There was a young guy joined the navy; he was half Jewish and half Mormon - said he came from Salt Beef City.
When he had sailed and had been away for a few months, he sent a letter home " Ma, I can't tell you where we are, but tomorrow I get to go shooting Polar Bears".
A couple of months later, another letter arrives " Ma, I can't say where we are, but tomorrow I get to go to dance with the Hula-Hula dancing girls".
Then, a few months late, another. "Ma - the Ship's Medical Officer sent for me today - he says that I would have done better to have danced with the Polar Bears and shot the Hula -Hula dancing girls!".
