A Soldier, a Sailor, an Airman and a Marine got into
>>an argument about which branch of the service was "The
>>Best." The arguing became so heated the four service
>>men failed to see an oncoming truck as they crossed
>>the street. They were hit by the truck and killed
>>instantly.
>>
>> Soon, the four servicemen found themselves at the
>>Pearly gates of Heaven. There, they met Saint Peter
>>and decided that only he could be the ultimate source
>>of truth and honesty. So, the four servicemen asked
>>him, "Saint Peter, which branch of the United States
>>Armed Forces is the best?"
>>Saint Peter replied, "I can't answer that. However, I
>>will ask God what He thinks the next time I see Him.
>>Meanwhile, thank you for your service on Earth and
>>welcome to Heaven." Some time later the four
>>servicemen see Saint Peter and remind him of the
>>question they had asked when first entering Heaven.
>>The four servicemen asked Saint Peter if he was able
>>to find the answer. Suddenly, a sparkling white dove
>>lands on Saint Peter's shoulder. In the dove's beak
>>is a note glistening with gold dust. Saint Peter opens
>>the note, trumpets blare, gold dust drifts into the
>>air, harps play crescendos and Saint Peter begins to
>>read the note aloud to the four servicemen:
>>
>> MEMORANDUM FROM THE DESK OF THE ALMIGHTY ONE
>>
>>TO: All Former Soldiers, Sailors, Airmen, and Marines
>>
>>
>> SUBJECT: Which Military Service Is the Best
>>
>>
>>
>>1. All branches of the United States Armed Forces are
>> honorable and noble.
>>
>> 2. Each serves America well and with distinction.
>>
>> 3. Serving in the United States military represents a
>> great honor warranting special respect, tribute, and
>>dedication from your fellow man.
>>
>> 4. Always be proud of that.
