Random Marine joke
Found via a random Google for something like “marine jokes”.
A Marine lieutenant is involved in a car cash. Looks worse than it is, but they have to take off both of his ears.
The lieutenant makes his way up the ranks, and one day, as a general, is put in charge of a Marine Corps Base with several detachments from other branches.
As his first order of business, he starts interviewing from the enlisted pool for his enlisted advisor.
First up is a sailor. The interview goes well, and, as a final question, the Marine asks the sailor “do you notice anything different about me, sailor?” The sailor says “yes, sir. You have no ears.” The general says “thank you, sailor, that will be all.” The sailor excuses himself and returns to his duties.
Next up, an airman. The interview goes even better, and again, the general asks the enlisted man his closing question. The airman responds “yes, sir. You’ve no ears.” The general again responds “thank you, airman, you are dismissed.” The airman takes his leave.
Finally, a Marine gunnery sergeant interviews for the enlisted advisor. The interview goes exceedingly well, and the general is ready to assign the gunny the position, after his famous final question. “What’s different about me, Gunny?” says the general.
“You wear contact lenses, sir.”
“That is completely outstanding, Gunny. How the hell did you know that?”
“Because it’s pretty freaking hard to wear glasses with no freaking ears.”
