The text under 1stLt needs an "s" on the end of 'think,' and the author likely meant to have an "n't" on the end of "were."

What is a WOC?

Eagerly awaiting the responses.

Got a good chuckle. When I was in, I considered it a good day when my nerves were intact, and could smile.

The young 2nd Lieutenant approached the crusty old Chief Master Sgt. and asked him about the origin of commissioned officers' insignias.

"Well, Lieutenant, it's history and tradition. First, we give you a gold bar representing that you're valuable but malleable. The silver bar of a 1st Lieutenant represents value, but less malleable.
When you make Captain, you're twice as valuable so we give you two silver bars."
"As a Colonel, you soar over military masses, hence the eagle. As a General, you're obviously a star. That answer your question, Sir?"

"Yes, but what about Majors and Lieutenant Colonels?"

"Now that goes waaaaaay back in history...Back to the Garden of Eden even!"
You see, we've always put leaves on our pricks!"
