When I was a recruit I was being a **** one time and a SGT (I think he was LOG) got right in my face and yelled " do you like drinking and fighting", my reply was " I don't drink anymore SGT", the look on his face was priceless, he told my CPL to deal with me, later that day we sat down and had a good laugh, the SGT was not well liked, apparently all the CPL's thought it was the best comeback they had heard, he told me if anyone asked to say he PT'ed me to near death.
Ah yes, the good old days.
Old but still in boots.
