Boudreaux, the smoothest-talking Cajun in the Louisiana National
Guard, was called to active duty. His first assignment was in a military
induction center.

Because he was a good talker, they assigned him the duty of advising new
recruits about government benefits, especially the GI insurance.


The officer in charge soon noticed that Boudreaux was getting a 99%
sign-up rate for the more expensive supplemental form of GI insurance. This
was remarkable, because it cost these low-income recruits $30.00 per month
for the higher coverage, compared to what the government was already
providing at no charge.

The officer decided he'd sit in the back of the room at the next briefing
and observe Boudreaux's sales pitch.

Boudreaux stood up before the latest group of inductees and said,

"If you has da normal GI insurans an' you goes to Afghanistan an' gets
youself killed, da govment' pays you benefishery $20,000.

If you takes out da suppmental insurans, which cost you only t'irty
dollars a munt, den da governmen' gots ta pay you benefishery $400,000!

"Now," Boudreaux concluded, "which bunch you tink dey gonna send ta
Afghanistan first?
