Somewhere in Afghanistan:
Forward Post: Forward scout Walleye to command post Perch, Over.
Command: Hello Walleye, this is Perch. What is your situation?
Forward Post: I see 'em colonel, the enemy is all around me. What now sir?
Command: Have they spotted you?
Forward Post: I don't think they have spotted me. What should I do sir?
Command: Lie low son, ready your weapon, and start praying.
Forward Post: Yes sir...but which of the 35 prayers should I choose?
Command: Which one son?
Forward Post: yes sir, there are 35 different prayers on the gadget you gave me?
Forward Post: So many prayers, so little time colonel.
Command: I don't know God dammit! just choose one, how about no.17-- that's an order!
Forward Post: Yes sir, no.17... click...
In Touch Messenger: "God has divine reasons for choosing to use war as a vehicle to accomplish His will..."
Forward Post: Oh crap sir, I think I just gave away my position... here they come...(static)
Command: (to assistant) Uh.. well I still think it's a great idea, make sure we issue some earphones next time...
