Swimming Swedes

During one of the Swedish army’s annual exercises, a sign on a bridge tells everyone "This bridge is destroyed". The exercise commences, and the Commander in Charge, a Colonel, scans around with his binoculars. Suddenly, he sees a line of soldiers walking over the closed bridge, which is marked with red flags, to simulate that it has been destroyed by an artillery barrage. The Colonel jumps in his TGB11 (Terrängbil 11, Eg. Cross Country Vehicle 11) and races down the hill to the bridge to have a word with the lousy platoon commander that allowed his men to cross a simulated destroyed bridge. As he approaches, he can see that the first soldier in line, a 2nd Lieutenant, carries a poster which says, "Vi simmar (We swim!" ;)

Looks like the soldier is a comfortable and clever being everywhere.

So a general's driving around during an exercise, making a nuisance of himself, and at some point his rover gets stuck. He yells out to some soldiers lying about, and tells them to come over and help his driver push the vehicle out of the mud.

"Sorry sir, but we've been ruled dead and can't participate in the exercise in any way."

The general turns to his driver. "Corporal, go get some of those corpses and put them under the tires for traction."
