Three men are sitting stiffly side by side on a long commercial flight.
After they're airborne and the plane has leveled off, the man in the window
seat abruptly says, distinctly and confidently, in a low voice,
"General, United States Army, retired. Married, two sons, both surgeons."
After a few minutes the man in the aisle seat states through a tightlipped
smile, "General, United States Air Force, retired. Married,
two sons, both judges."
After some thought, the fellow in the center seat decides to introduce
himself. With a twinkle in his eye he proclaims,
"Chief Petty Officer, United States Navy, retired. Never married, two sons,
both generals."
