Army stories

I was going through Army stories on the Internet and various resource books, and the following really cracked me up:

One Christmas, an officer struck on the idea of having a special Christmas lunch to be served at the officers' mess. He made a special order for a large uncooked turkey, and arranged for it to be delivered to the cook sergeant at the cookhouse on Christmas Eve.

On Christmas Eve, when the officers arrived at the mess to have their special Christmas lunch, they found the cook serving what looked rather much like chicken rice. The officer who made the order was very upset and summoned the cook sergeant to the dining hall. This was how the conversation went:

Officer: 'Sergeant Lee!! What the F#$^ is THIS?' (pointing to the chicken rice)

Sergeant Lee: 'Sir, I dunno leh. Today the chicken very big, just nice make chicken rice lor.'

The officer was too stunned to say anything.

The rest of us had a good laugh.

We were probably the only unit in the SAF to savour the ...

.... Special Christmas Turkey Rice. :p
