I've laughed at, "Military Intelligence" ever since it sent a squad to rescue a downed Arc Light crew (part of Operation Linebacker II) . The squad was suppose to use "HI" (Harassment and Interdiction) tactics to keep the enemy distracted so a rescue helo could extract them.

The Military Intelligence said there was only a platoon of NVA in the area. Well, Military Intelligence was off just a wee bit, there was almost a frigging battalion! Estimates of around 500 NVA, so over two full companies at the least!..... ::)

No 42 is my all-time favourite:

"Almost Exactly"

Regularly used by BBC announcers, on the Radio, when announcing the time!... >:(...!

"Its almost exactly 6-O-clock"

..and I'm shouting at my Radio; its either; almost 6-O'clock, or its exactly 6-O'clock!
