[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 3746783, member: 5412"] My family subscribed to Readers Digest for many years. I remember the humor in uniform section. One that really hit home as funny was that a cook in one of the base camps in Vietnam was cooking breakfast. In the process of cracking eggs, a piece of the egg shell flew into his eye, so he went to first aid, got it removed and went back to cooking breakfast for the troops. A month later while in formation for some reason I don't remember he was called out from the formation. Wondering why he was called to the front, the company captain met him and presented him with the purple heart to be pinned on his uniform. Then the Captain read the decoration that stated he had received a "shell" fragment to the eye. He returned the medal and went back to work. [/QUOTE]
