Well, at least you didn't start out with "It was a dark and stormy night
..."

The only correct beginning to a war story is:

"There I was - knee deep in expended brass and grenade pins . . ."


I was ripping the buttons off my tunic to get lower.

I generally start with - "Where was I? Oh, 30,000 feet and surrounded by
helicopters..."

Sorts out the audience very quickly.
