Vietnam veteran's hilarious true story A bunch of US soldiers were marching across a field. One of the guys says to his buddy, ""Hey, do you see where we are?"" He looks around and realizes they are walking through a massive field of marijuana. The soldiers started breaking off plants and stuffing them into their clothes and their helmets, as much as they could fit. Then their commanding officer comes over, sees what the men are doing, and shouts, ""Finally!!! Bout time you boys started listening to me about camoflage!"" ------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------------------------- This is from the Vietnam documentary 'Brothers in War'. After all these tragic stories, one vet wanted to show that it wasn't all bad, so he told this story. For those that don't get it, its common practice for soldiers to break off local foliage and attach it to their uniform to help them blend in as they move through different environments. Obviously the CO didn't recognize what kind of plant it was. (Nothing makes a joke funny like having to explain it!)
