WAITING TO HAVE a physical at the base hospital in Cherry Point, N.C., I overheard a Marine Corps warrant officer try unsuccessfully to get the medical personnel to issue him new eyeglasses without an appointment. Just then, a two-star general came into the room, and the warrant officer snapped sharply to attention, greeting him, “Good morning, Colonel.” “Mister,” the general replied, “If you can’t tell a two-star general from a colonel, you better get some glasses.” The warrant officer didn’t have to wait for an appointment.
