I AM a first sergeant in the Army stationed at Fort Carson, Colo. After our waterbed sprang a leak, my wife and I were grateful that my sergeant major offered us the use of his spare conventional bed. But we were unaccustomed to a regular mattress and slept restlessly the next few nights.
On the following weekend, we attended a formal dinner with the sergeant major, his wife and other couples. My wife and I grew sleepy, so we made our apologies and started to depart early. One of the women asked why. My wife responded that she was exhausted as a result of many sleepless nights in the sergeant major's bed, winked at the astonished man and walked out, leaving him to explain to his guests.
