  Army Bound
  
  The following is a father's advice to his son just
  moments before he gets on the bus that will carry him
  off to join the Army:
  
  "Son, you are getting ready to embark on a great
  adventure as many of the men in our family have done
  since your great-great-great-great-great-great-great
  grandfather did many hundreds of years ago.
  
  There will be many dangers ahead that you will
  encounter. Remember your training and obey your
  commanders, this will keep you alive during the
  arduous days of battle. Always stay with the plan,
  if you deviate from it you will be in grave jeopardy.
  
  When the time of battle is over, be wary as you go
  into the towns and cities ahead because there are many
  hidden dangers lurking there. There will be many
  temptations to lure you away from your brothers in
  arms
  and this could put you in danger even if it seems safe
  at the time.
  
  In every town there will be a street that will be most
  > treacherous of all - there will be strong drink to
  dull your senses, loud and crude songs to suppress
  your hearing, and wild women of ill repute to enable
  your enemy to catch you off guard. My advice to you as
  a former soldier is simple:
  
  Whatever you do... FIND THAT STREET."
