On Coast Guard cutters, low-ranking crewmembers take turns in the
galley helping the cooks. One young seaman aboard was always dropping
dishes and spilling food.
One day, alone in the galley, he noticed an unfrosted yellow sheet
cake cooling on a counter. Determined to rectify past errors, the
seaman made chocolate icing and carefully decorated the cake with it.
The seaman stood proudly by the dessert as the head cook returned to
the galley.
Frantically, the cook began to look around. "Where did my CORNBREAD
go?" he shouted.
