2 soldiers, Lee and Tan were promoted from Privates to
Sergeants. One night they were out for a drink and Tan said, "Hey,
Lee, there's the NCO club. Let's go in for a drink."
"But we are Privates," protested Lee.
"We are Sergeants now, said Tan pulling Lee inside. "Now Lee, I'm
going to sit down and have me a drink."
"But we are Privates." said Lee.
"You blind?" said Tan pointing at his three newly earned strips.
"We are Sergeants now."
So they ordered their drinks and soon a hooker came up to Tan,
"You're kind of cute," she said, "and I like to take you someplace
and make you feel good, but you might like to know I've got a bad
case of gonorrhea."
Tan pulled his friend to his side and whispered, "Lee, go look in
the dictionary and see what gonorrhea means. If it's okay, give me
the okay sign and i'll go."
Lee went look it up, came back and gave the okay sign. Of course 3
weeks later Tan ws laid up in the infirmary with a terrible case of
gonorrhea.
"Lee," he asked, "Why you gave me the okay sign for that?"
"Well Tan, in the dictionary, it said gonorrhea only affects the
privates." Then he pointed to his stripes and said, "But we're
Sergeants now!"
