General Petraeus, head of the U.S. Central Command recently visited BYU-Provo. While there, he gave his top 10 list for why BYU grads make great soldiers.
10. They have already been on many a mission.
9. Army chow is no problem for folks accustomed to eating green Jell-O and shredded carrots.
8. It's no problem if they don't know what rank somebody else is, they just refer to them as brother or sister.
7. Then never go AWOL, they prefer to call it being less active.
6. They will seize any objective swiftly if you tell them refreshments will be served.
5. They know how to make things happen. In fact, if you ever need a base built quickly in a barren wasteland, you have only to stride out to where you want them to start, plant your walking staff firmly in the ground and say with a loud voice, "This is the place!"
4. They have innovative ideas for handling insurgents, like assigning them home teachers.
3. They always have a years supply of provisions on board.
2. They are the world's most reliable designated drivers.
1. They understand how far Iraq has come over the last seven years; in fact they think that Iraq's old spot in the "Axis of Evil" can now be filled by the University of Utah.
