When I was a Private the battalion had a picnic, pit roasted pig on the menu. As we went through the line our Sgt Major was cutting your portion by request. I was watching as we inched forward, when I got there the SMAJ asked me "What cut do you want, soldier?" I pointed to the jowl and said "I'd like that one, if it's OK Sergeant Major." He smiled as he cut it and asked where I was from. "Tennessee", I replied. "Figures" he said. Then he looked up and announced to those behind me in line: "This young soldier from Tennessee just walked off with the best cut of meat on this whole animal". And he was right. 😉
