Soldier stands guard

A new soldier was on sentry duty at the main gate. His orders were clear. No car was to enter unless it had a special sticker on the windshield. A big Army car came up with a general seated in the back. The sentry said, «Halt, who goes there?»

The chauffeur, a corporal, says, «General Wheeler.»

«I’m sorry, I can’t let you through. You’ve got to have a sticker on the windshield.»

The general said, «Drive on!»

The sentry said, «Hold it! You really can’t come through. I have orders to shoot if you try driving in without a sticker.»

The general repeated, «I’m telling you, son, drive on!»

The sentry walked up to the rear window and said, «General, I’m new at this. Do I shoot you or the the driver?»
