Bewildered

My youngest brother Tony had just completed Army basic
training and was on leave prior to his first tour in
Germany. I am an Army National Guard pilot, and my other
brother is my crew chief. Since we were headed to the air
base where Tony was to catch his overseas transport, we
offered to take him.

When we landed at McGuire Air Force Base, several of Tony's
fellow privates came out to greet him. Tony ran ahead, while
my other brother and I followed with his gear. As Tony
approached his buddies, he was bewildered by their
dumbfounded stares.

Then he realized that his friends weren't seeing his two
brothers giving him a lift; they were seeing a new private
arrive in his own helicopter -- with a captain and sergeant
carrying his bags!

'The clock of life is wound but once, and no man has the power to tell just when the hands will stop, at late or early hour. Now is the only time you own. Live, love, toil with a will. Place no faith in time. For the clock may soon be still.'
