Three men are sitting stiffly side by side in coach class. After they're airborne and the plane has leveled off the man in the window seat introduces himself. "General, United States Army, retired. Married, two sons, both judges."

The man in the aisle seat answers through a tight-lipped smile, "General, United States Air Force, retired. Married, two sons, both surgeons."

After a long pause, the fellow in the center seat looks at them both. With a twinkle in his eye he proclaims, "Master Gunnery Sergeant, United States Marines, retired. Never married, two sons, both
Generals."
