One day in artillery instruction, a Colonel came to inspect our class.  First up was Private O’Malley.  The Colonel got in his face and asked him what reading he had on his 105 mm Howitzer.  “Two-nine-oh-seven, sir,”  was the reply.     “Soldier,” said the Colonel, “don’t you know you never say “oh” in the artillery?  You say “zero” What’s your name, soldier?”  Zero Malley, sir,” answered the Private.
