The strong young sailor at the army base was bragging that he could outdo anyone in a feat of strength.
He made a special case of making fun of one of the older retired soldiers. After several minutes, the older soldier had had enough.
"Why don't you put your money where your mouth is," he said.
"I will bet a week's wages that I can haul something in a wheelbarrow over to that tent that you won't be able to wheel back."
"You're on, old man," the braggart replied. "Let's see what you got."
The old man reached out and grabbed a wheelbarrow by the handles.
Then, nodding to the young sailor, he said, "All right, dumb ass! Get in."
