A big battle was going
on during the First World War. Guns were firing, and shells and
bullets were flying about everywhere. After an hour of this, one
of the soldier decided that the fighting was getting too dangerous
for him, so he left the front line and began to go away from the
battle. After he had walked for an hour, he saw an officer coming
towards him. The officer stopped him and said, "Where are you
going?"
"I'm trying to get
as far away as possible from the battle that's going on behind
us, sir." the soldier answered.
"Do you know who I
am?" the officer said to him angerly. "I'm your commanding officer."
The soldier was very
surprised when he heard this and said, "My God, I didn't know
that I was so far back already!"
