An Officer from the RAF was walking down a high street in company with an Army Officer, As they pass the Town Hall they see two council workers looking up at the flag pole and trying to measure it with tape measure
"What are you doing?" asks the Army Officer
"We have been told to find out how tall it is by the Mayor " was the reply
The RAF Officer looked at the situation and said
"If you take the pin out of the base of the flag pole you will be able to
lay it down flat, Then it will be easy to measure".
"Won't work!" Said the Army Officer
"Why not?" asked the RAF guy
The Army Officer sighed "They need to know how tall it is, not how long!":icon_lol:
