When I was at Fort Dix, N.J., for Army basic training, my father, an Air
Force master sergeant, was stationed at Dover Air Force Base in
Delaware. I got a weekend pass, and Dad picked me up Friday evening so
we could drive home to Massachusetts.
On the way, we stopped at a diner. I was wearing my dress greens, and
Dad was in dress blues. The waitress looked puzzled as she took our
order. "Is something wrong, ma'am?" I asked.
"It's unusual to see men in different services traveling together," she
explained.
"That's nothing," Dad replied. "He's taking me home to sleep with his
mother!"
