1. It's a beautiful day at Fort Somewhere and it's time for another day in the United States Army. Sergeant Bly tells Private Snuffy to go to the communications center and grab a box of chemlight batteries. What's the joke here? No joke, you better move out and do what Sergeant Bly tells you to do Chemlights do not require batteries Chemlight batteries can only be ordered through your unit supply section Sergeant Bly, being a NCO, is the only soldier authorized to request these batteries

2. While Private Snuffy is off getting chemlight batteries, Sergeant Bly realizes he needs a box of grid squares. In his military voice, he instructs Private Joe to grab him two boxes of grid squares from the maintenance section. What's the joke in this situation? No joke, Private Joe better move out smartly and comply The maintenance section only orders parts for vehicles and is not authorized the funding to order grid squares Grid squares come in sheets of 100, not in boxes Grid squares are found on a map

3. Sergeant Bly instructs Private Jones to go to the maintenance shop and grab R2D2. Did he pull one over on Private Jones? Yes No

4. Sergeant Bly is starting to feel bad about all the pranks he's played so far. He gets serious for a moment and instructs Private Slim to retrieve the front slope indicator from the mechanics. What is the prank here? Periodically the front slope disappears and needs to be located with this tool There is no front slope, only a rear slope which means you need the rear slope indicator You better move out Slim and do what Sergeant Bly says The front slope doesn't need to be indicated; it's right in front of you on the tank

5. Sergeant Bly is getting ready to shoot a Tank Table VIII exercise with his brand new 2nd Lieutenant Tank Commander. After the daytime exercise, the crew dismounts the tank to get debriefed. Lieutenant Smiley can't seem to find his soft cap. "Has anyone seen my soft cap"? Lieutenant Smiley asks. Your reply would likely be what? "It's probably in your pocket." "Look down range about 3000 meters." "The tank ate it." "What soft cap?"

6. Sergeant Bly needs his crew to do some serious maintenance on the tank after firing the Tank Table VIII exercise. He instructs Private Wrong to crawl around the tank with a hammer and lightly tap the hull. "Any hollow sounds you find need to be marked with an X with this piece of chalk" bellows Sergeant Bly. What is the prank in this situation? There will be white X's everywhere on the tank due to its natural hollow sound when hit Hollow sounds need to marked with silly string not chalk No joke, just start pounding and marking You can't use a hammer to check for hollow sounds, you just use echo location

7. Sergeant Bly takes his young group of soldiers to the M16 range to qualify. Private Nino asks Sergeant Bly for his weapon. Sergeant Bly hands Private Nino's weapon to him with a smirk on his face and says, "Good luck." Private Nino attempts to fire the weapon but nothing happens. He turns and looks at his trustworthy NCO only to find him laughing and tossing a shiny metal object up in the air and catching it. What just happened? Captain Crunch clogged the magazine with crunch berries Private Nino doesn't know how to shoot Sergeant Bly removed the firing pin from the weapon Colonel Sanders placed a chicken leg in Private Nino's barrel

8. Lieutenant Stan is both excited and nervous about his meeting with Colonel Heady. He swiftly picks up his beret and storms out the door. When he reports to Colonel Heady, he pulls off his beret and salutes. Colonel Heady returns his salute and says "Lieutenant Stan, what's wrong with your forehead"? Lieutenant Stan rubs his fingers on his forehead, looks at them, and notices a black mark on his fingers. Lieutenant Stan's reply should be what? "None of your business, sir." "I was changing the oil on my moped, sir." "I have ringworm, sir." "My guys put shoe polish on the rim of my beret and it made this nasty black ring on my head, sir."

9. After Lieutenant Stan returned from his brief meeting with the Colonel, he instructs Sergeant Bly that it's once again maintenance time for the tanks. Sergeant Bly agrees and tells Private Goodford to report to the maintenance shop to retrieve six new spark plugs for the tank engine. What's the prank here? The tank requires eight plugs, not six The tank has no need for spark plugs due to the Tryson Chopper which converts potatoes into spark Once again, Private Goodford better not question his faithful Sergeant Tanks are run off of diesel or turbine engines and do not require spark plugs

10. After a long day of maintenance and weapons qualification, Sergeant Bly is ready to call it a day. As they begin to leave the motor pool, Sergeant Bly looks at his tank and notices something wrong. "Private Snuffy" he yells, "get up there and close those dog house doors". Private Snuffy turns to look at the tank and with a disgusted grunt agrees. What is the prank in this situation? Sergeant Bly has the doors with him in his pocket The piece Sergeant Bly was referring to is called the cat box No prank, there really is a piece on the tank called the dog house doors Dog house doors are piece of equipment on M203 grenade launcher not a tank
