AND FINALLY:
The Navy realized it had more commissioned and non-commissioned officers on the payroll than it truly needed, so leadership came up with a creative early-retirement incentive. Any officer willing to step down would receive a bonus of $1,000 for every inch measured in a straight line between any two points of his body. The catch was that each officer could personally choose which two points would be measured.
The first officer eagerly volunteered. When asked which points he preferred, he confidently requested to be measured from the top of his head to the tip of his toes. The tape measure confirmed a full six feet. He happily walked away with a $72,000 retirement bonus.
The second officer watched this unfold and decided to be a bit more strategic. When his turn came, he asked to be measured from the tips of his outstretched fingers down to his toes. With arms fully extended, he managed to gain extra inches and left with an even bigger check totaling $96,000.
Finally, a grizzled old Chief stepped forward to claim his retirement. When the pension officer asked where he would like to be measured, the Chief calmly replied, “From the tip of my weenie to my testicles.”
The pension officer gently suggested he might want to reconsider, pointing out the large checks the previous officers had just received. Still, the Chief insisted that this was exactly how he wanted to be measured. After a brief discussion, they agreed on the condition that a medical officer would perform the measurement.
The medical officer arrived, asked the Chief to drop his trousers, and began measuring from the tip of the Chief’s weenie, slowly working his way back. Suddenly, he stopped and exclaimed in surprise, “Wait a minute… where are your testicles?”
The old Chief replied, “Vietnam.”
