Smuckatelly Rides Again

100 words on Smuckatelly
Weapons accountability is a big thing in basic training. Leaving your weapon unattended is a Bozo no-no. If a drill sergeant found one, the trainee was going to push Georgia away.
My buddy Smuckatelly thought it was funny to grab unattended weapons like he was a junior drill. One day it rained, we were under a pavilion and had stacked arms. When I went to get my weapon, it was gone.
I had Smuckatelly pinned to a tree by his throat when somebody yelled.
"I took yours by mistake."
Smuckatelly never stole another weapon.
