MY VETERAN'S DAY PRAYER (Humor)

Thank you for making me so timid that I wouldn't even dance with the girls without wearing fresh gloves. Being bashful, I never did come down with anything more serious than a light case of flu. My hesitancy stemmed from my mandatory attendance at the X-rated movies our officers insisted that we attend before getting a 12-hour pass. Some of my buddies didn't fare quite as well. The doctors put them on a diet of sulfa and the Top Sergeants put them on guard duty whenever it rained. If a sergeant came down with a case, he got the same treatment. He also got demoted to Private.

And finally, Lord, thank you for all the brave men and women now taking my place. They are all heroes, whether they know it or not.
