The Naval Chief Petty Officer had one more task to complete before he could retire: his discharge medical exam.

The doctor gave him a thorough going over and was impressed. "You're in excellent health," he told the over-the-hill seaman. "Except one thing."

"What's that?" the CPO asked, looking a little nervous.

"You seem extraordinarily tense. We ruled out medical problems in the exam," the doctor said, cautiously trying to probe the man's psyche, "but I have a guess: when was the last time you had sex?"

"1945," came the reply.

"Well that just has to be it, then!" the astounded medic exclaimed.

"I don't know why you'd think so, doc," the E8 said, glancing at his watch. "It's only 0845 now...."
