Question for those not raised in religious homes
#13
RE: Question for those not raised in religious homes
[derail] During Operation Market-Garden a bunch of US GIs were rowing rubber boats across a river under fire. Mortar, machine guns, rifle fire, they had their choice. As they were rowing one guy kept repeating "Hail Mary, full of grace" over and over again. When they made the far bank one of the other guys asked him why he didn't finish the prayer. He blushed and said "That's all I could remember."

"Well, padre, I hope you do better than that in the future!"

(Taken from official US Army histories.) [/derail]
