Air Force Recuiter

The chief of staff of the U.S. Air Force decided that he would personally intervene in the recuiting crisis affecting all of our armed services. So, he directed that a nearby Air Force base be opended and that all eligible young men and women be invited. As he and his staff were standing near a brand-new F-15 Fighter, a pair of twin brothers who looked as if they had just stepped off a Marine Corps recuiting poster walked up to them.

.
The chief of staff walked up to them, stuck out his hand, and introduced himself. He looked at the first young man and asked, "Son, what skills can you bring to the Air Force?"

.
The young man looked at him and said, "I'm a pilot!"
.
The general got all excited, turned to his aid, and said, "Get him in today, all the paperwork done, everything, do it!" The aid hustled the young man off.
.
The general looked at the second young man and asked, "What sills do you bring to the Air Force?"
.
The young man said, "I chop wood!"
.
"Young man, "huffed the general, "you are listening to me. We don't need wood choppers; this is the 21st century!"
.
"Well, the youn man said, "you hired my brother!"
.
"Of course we did, " said the general "He's a pilot!"
.
The young man rolled his eyes and said, "But I have to chip it before he can pile it!"
