SG2 Humour

An NAC general was addressing a company of Ghurkas, looking for volunteers
for a high-stakes, high-risk mission.

"Alright, I need men willing to fly through heavy air defenses, bail out at
500 meters altitude, and assault the Eurie base."

When only one out of three men stepped forward, the general got very worried
and addressed an NCO. "Why don't more of your men volunteer? Are they afraid?"

"No sir," replied the NCO, "They think 500 meters too high. They want 100
meters."

"100 meters!!" exclaimed the general. "Your jump jets would never be able to
break the fall at only 100 meters!"

"We get jump jets??" cried the NCO, and the rest of the Ghurkas stepped
forward.
