When my friend Brian was at a Marine Corps boot camp, a member of his unit was having little success on the firing range with his M-16 rifle---the poor guy couldn’t hit targets at any distance.   He was already frustrated when an angry drill instructor jumped in his face and berated him for poor marksmanship.  “You can’t hit a target at 50 yards!” the instructor bellowed.  “Why,  I‘ll bet you couldn’t hit a target two inches in front of your face.”  “Of course I could,” the recruit said.  “But first you’ll have to back up.”
