WHEN I GOT OFF the bus late one night at Camp Beauregard, La., and was hurrying to my quarters, I was confronted by a guard. "Halt! Who goes there?" he called out.
I gave my name, rank, serial number and Army unit, and waited patiently for the command to advance and be recognized. Finally I broke the silence with, "Aren't you supposed to say something else?"
"Yes," the guard replied, "and don't you dare move until I think of it."
