Two privates stationed at Fort Campbell
were handed shovels and told to bury a large, dead animal. While digging they got into an
argument about what they were burying. "This here's a big mule!"
"This ain't no mule, this here's a
donkey."
"Mule!"
"Donkey!"
Well, this went on for a while until the
camp chaplain came by. "What are you boys doing?"
"We're diggin' a grave for this
mule."
"Donkey, dammit!"
The chaplain cut in, "Boys, this isn't
either one, it's an ass."
An hour later, the camp commander came up
and said, "What are you men doing, digging a foxhole?"
