I'll remember it till I die, but I need to fill in the background.

Place: Ft. Hunter Liggett California.
Year: 1985-1986.
Time: Early Morning.

We had been practicing for a Brigade live fire demostration with VIP's from every place that was a place. It was going to last hours with everything you could imagine being fired in a mock multi battalion attack.
It was the morning of the actual event. It was summer and had been in the 90's everyday but we were enjoying a cool and quite morning as we readied for the day's pain.
They were giving us a hot chow for breakfast so we'd be in 'high-spirits'. Men were slowly working thru the chow line when the voice of our 1SGT wafted 'gently' across the peaceful scene.
"DON'T SPREAD THE PEANUT BUTTER. JUST SLAP IT ON AND MOVE OUT. SPREAD IT WHEN YOU GET BACK TO YOUR POSITION."

Seems Top didn't like his chow line bunching up at the condiment station.

hey Hero...get over here
