  PETS二级精品阅读正是士兵
  作为一名新上任的步兵中尉,我通过擦拭自己的M-16式自动步枪给全排作个榜样。我们一块擦枪,一名战士抱怨由于M-16的枪栓枪膛的特别凹形结构,擦起来十分困难。
  “中尉,应该制造一种擦这枪的工具。”士兵说。
  “已经制造出来了。”一军士尖叫。
  “真的?”我十分诧异,纳闷为什么我们没有定购这种工具。
  “真的,长官,”军士答道,“它就是士兵。”
  None Other Than a Soldier
  As a newly commissinaed infantry lieutenant, I was eager to set an example for my platoon by cleaning my own M-16 rifle. While we were working on the weapons, one soldier complained about the unusual notched shape of the M-16's bolt and chamber, which makes it difficult to clean.
  "Lieutenant, they need to make something to clean this with," the soldier said.
  "They do," piped up a sergeant.
  "Really," I said with surprise, wondering why we had not ordered such a tool.
  "Yes, sir," replied the sergeant. "It's called a soldier."
