I had heard
that John F. Kennedy once said…
“You haven’t
lived until you’ve shaved next to another man while he takes a shit!”
Did he say
this? Who cares… the point being that nothing makes you realize how comfortable
you’ve become in your surroundings when you’ve found yourself in these
conditions! Boy, don’t we know… the most time efficient and hygienic process of
getting ready … “The Shit, Shower & Shave!”
Of all the dirty tricks, it really makes me rave,
To have my shipmate come in to shit, when I begin to shave.
There’s just one time in all the day, when it’s solitude I
crave,
But he sits and drops his stinking shit into that watery grave;
I don’t see why he couldn’t wait until I’ve had my shave.
Yes my
friends… Shit, Shower, & Shave. Every champion has their winning
rituals for performance. After all it's what you do every day that really
counts!!!
CSM Irtenkauf at Camden Military Academy would tell his high school age Army ROTC cadets to do the three S's: Shit, Shower, Shave!
ReplyDeleteThe first time I heard that was from my husband who was on an aircraft carrier for three years with 3,000 men!!!
