Three LTs are doing Land Nav and come to a river. The first one drops to his knees and prays to God, "Lord, give me the strength to cross this river." The sky rumble and the first LT feels strong. He jumps in, but the current was too strong and the LT disappears down the river.
Unshaken, the second LT says, "Lord, give me the strength and equipment to cross this river." The skies rumble again and a sailboat appears. The Lt jumps in feeling confident. He gets to the middle of the river and realizes he doesn't know how to sail. Quickly the boat flips over and the LT disappears down the river.
The last LT, a little scared, says, "Lord, give me the strength, equipment, and knowledge to cross this river." God snaps his fingers, and POW, the LT becomes an NCO. He looks down at his map, walks 10 meters down the river and crosses the bridge.
