The Drill Sergeant

One of my husband’s duties as a novice drill

Magazines

Soon after being transferred to a new duty station, my Marine husband called home to tell me he would be late - again. He went on to say that dirty magazines had been discovered in the platoon's quarters and they had to discipline the whole squad. I launched into a tirade, arguing that many men

and said, “I need a baseball quote.”

I immediately answered with Yogi Berra’s famous “It ain’t
