OOPs, TARGET PRACTICE
Zack volunteered for military service during WWII.
He had such a high aptitude for aviation that he was
sent right to Pensacola skipping boot camp. The very
first day at Pensacola he solos and is the best flier
on the base. All they could do was give him his gold
wings and assign him immediately to an aircraft carrier
in the Pacific.
On his first day aboard he took off and single-handedly
shot down 6 Japanese Zeros. Then climbing up to 20,000
feet he found 10 more Japanese planes and shot them all
down, too. Noting that his fuel was getting low, he
descended, circled the carrier and came in for a perfect
landing on the deck. He threw back the canopy, climbed
out and jogged over to the Captain.
Saluting smartly, he said, "Well, Sir, how did I do on
my very first day?"
The Captain replied, "You make one velly impoltant mistake."
