Every training Company had one.

What to call them?
“Sad Sack” or “Goofus.”
“Dumb-ass” or “Goofball.”
Let us call him Private Goofball.

Your Right, Your Right
was always his Left.
Not once but not more than twice.
PVT Goofball would run to morning formation,
come to attention and stand there:

Boots in his left hand,
fatigues in his right hand.

Yup, there he stood in his skivvies and green socks!

Every training Company had one.
