Now THAT'S guts

Top brass from the Army, Navy and Marine Corps were arguing
about who had the bravest troops. They decided to settle the
dispute using an enlisted man from each branch.
The Army General called a private over and ordered him to climb
to the top of the base flagpole while singing "The Caissons Go
Rolling Along," then let go with both hands, and salute. The
private quickly complied.
Next, the Admiral ordered a sailor to climb the pole, polish
the brass knob at the top, sing "Anchors Aweigh," salute smartly
and jump off. The sailor did as he was told and landed on the
concrete below.
Finally, the marine was told to do exactly as the army and navy
men had done, but in full battle gear, pack filled with bricks,
loaded weapon carried high. He took one look at the Marine
General and said, "You're out of your mind, sir!"
The marine commander turned to the others. "Now THAT'S guts!"
