Bigears Clarke advised "Mr B-lair has instructed all military units to assist their local police forces in stamping out joyriders and driving on the wrong side of the road."

Someone's got to take charge, so it might as well be me..

Competitors - we had a descent into a Chinese parliament, so I'm calling this to order. Fall in three deep (that's one behind the other, twice) and listen up.

All "current" rounds of the comp are cancelled with immediate effect.

As of now you will bend your warped, under-used brains around the challenge of finding a caption to the picture below. For bonus points add a thought bubble for the officer (RM?) in the beret.

It will be judged on the morning of Sunday 12th Feb.

And for even more bonus points, explain why he's the only one wearing headgear.

That rank-pulling, colonial bastard!

Headgear

Look at the shoulder flash - he's RAF Regt, that's why he's wearing head gear!

Just like a stiff willy at a Church Parade it seems. Maybe the silly fellow did not catch on he was indoors or sumpkin.

.
So the US Army officer says" Now, Mr Secretary, Sir, we'd all like to hear your comments on these reports which say that something hasn't happened......"
.
.
.
So Rumsfeld says -
"Reports that say that something hasn't happened are always interesting to me, because as we know, there are known knowns; there are things we know we know. We also know there are known unknowns; that is to say we know there are some things we do not know. But there are also unknown unknowns - the ones we don't know we don't know"
.
.
.
USAO "Well there you have it , gentlemen! Thank you Mr Secretary"
.
.
Rumsfeld "You're welcome - now get your fre@kin hand off my knee!
.
.
............................................................ ...............................................
For the bonus points , the thought bubble for the officer in the beret reads:
"Sing Lofty, Sing!"
............................................................ ...............................................
For even more bonus points, he's the only one wearing head gear because he has orders to block the view of gorgeous George behind him.

"Jeez, Don, fess up.... you cut the cheese, I heard you!"

Officer in beret..." ah, the joy of stealth farts. Got away with it again.... I wish the Army's policy on gays was more relaxed. It's bad enough I have to be the only one here with a moustache, but to make me wear the kiss me quick hat even indoors, is pushing it too far.

So that's it, is it, Mr Secretary? The top secret star wars laser is actually just the light beam from a slide projector?




For the extra point: Beret man thinks, " I can see right through his head!"

I know I shouldn't but...


chap with the hat is thinking "I hope Piotr remembers to stop off at the grocery store on the way home, because I simply can't make omelettes without goat cheese and basil"

Officer speaking to Rumsfeld....."Mr. Secretary....you can sit here all day and pout but really....we only have Black berets. If you want one of those really gucci things like that ...that...man there is wearing....it just ain't gonna happen. We tried but that ...that ...man said no way he was trading his beret for a USS New Orleans ball cap."

EDIT: Bugger .. that'll teach me to skim read .. someone got there first!
