A new lieutenent in the
French Foreign Legion arrives at an isolated base in Algeria. As a corporal
shows him is quarters, he asks the corporal, "The base is rather
isolated, what do the men do for female companionship?"
The corporal
replies, "On Fridays, they let us use the camels."
The
lieutenent can't beleive it. On Friday, he stands around the camel pen to
see what happens. Suddenly, he hears the camp bugler blow a charge on his
horn.
The ensuing chaos was amazing... men from all over the camp
decended on the camel pens like huns attacking a village. Out of the swarm
of men, the lieutenent sees the same corporal he met on his first day. He
grabs the man by the arm. The corporal shouts, "Let me go! Let me
go!"
"Good God man," said the lieutenent. "There are
200 men here and 500 camels. What's your hurry?"
The corporal
replied, "I don't want to get stuck with an ugly
one!"
