afrotc-l: Which Military Service is the best?



Which Military Service is the Best
>
>
>A Soldier, a Sailor, an Airman, and a Marine, got into an argument
>about which service is "The Best." The arguing became so heated that
>they eventually ended up killing each other.
>
>Soon, they found themselves at the Pearly Gates of Heaven. So, they
>met St. Peter and decided that only he could be the ultimate source
>of truth and honesty so they asked him: "St. Peter, which branch
>of the American Armed Forces is the best?" St. Peter instantly
>replies: "I can't answer that. But, I will ask God what he thinks
>the next time I see Him."
>
>Some time later the four servicemen see St. Peter and remind him of
>the question and ask if he was able to find the answer. Suddenly, a
>sparkling white dove lands on St. Peter's shoulder. In the dove's
>beak is a note glistening with gold dust. St. Peter says to the four
>men, "Your answer from the Boss. Let's see what he says." St. Peter
>opens the note, trumpets blare, gold dust drifts into the air, harps
>play crescendos and St. Peter begins to read it aloud to the four
>young servicemen:
>
>
>MEMORANDUM FOR SOLDIERS, SAILORS, MARINES, AND AIRMEN
>SUBJECT:    Which Military Service is the Best
>
>Gentlemen, all branches of the United States' Armed Services are
>"Honorable and Noble." Each serves your country well and with
>distinction. Being a member of the American Armed Forces represents
>a special calling warranting special respect, tribute, and
>dedication.
>
>Be proud of that.
>                 Sincerely,

>                 GOD, USAF (Ret.)
