I recently had an e-mail exchange with a co-worker that I found humorous. I thought it was worth sharing.

Although I appreciate the help, that was LT. Yauney’s decision. If I were placed in charge you would be driving a small sailboat with wheels on it around the perimeter of the Green Zone singing happy Arabic songs about peace, love and understanding. You would also be wearing the same type of hat Skipper wore on Gilligan’s Island. The boat would be full of ice cream, which you would give out to all the children on request.
Respectfully,
Sgt. Trevor L. Snyder
