Two old Italian men, Carlo and Giovanni, were sitting on a porch reminiscing about World War II.

It was a real struggle, said Carlo

I know what you mean, replied Giovanni.

I remember I was struggling all the way. I fought and I fought, and I fought, and when I thought I was tired out, I found the strength to carry on fighting another day, Carlo reminisced.

Yup, Giovanni concurred.

But it didnt work, because in the end they made me join the Army anyway, concluded Carlo.
