Forum Health Inspector
HALFWAY through a party we were giving, I remembered that my husband, Brad, had Marine Reserve duty the next morning. I decided to quickly starch his cap. Stretching the cap on a metal form, I painted it with starch and put it in a preheated oven to dry. However, I forgot to turn off the oven, so the cap became scorched on top.
The next morning, the cap went unnoticed as the officer in charge of inspection was much shorter than my husband. Later in the day, when Brad walked indoors, he automatically removed his cap. An officer stopped him, looked at the cap, shook his head and asked, "Hot outside, Marine?"
