During a recent joint exercise a Navy admiral repeatedly called a veteran Marine Master sergeant “chief”, the Navy’s equivalent rank.  On the last day of the operation, the admiral caught himself again calling the Marine “Chief” and said, “I’m sorry, master sergeant, but if you were in the Navy, you would be a chief.”  “No sir,” the Marine replied.  “If I were in the Navy, I’d be an Admiral.”
