History of Pakistan Army

[ghazi52]

A subedar major gives morning report to his CO, carefully selecting his words not to offend d colonel, but all occurrences have to be reported..

سر،کل شام ہاکی اور والی بال کے انٹر یونٹ میچ ہووے،ہاکی وہ جیت گئے، والی بال ہم ہارگئے۔۔ باقی ALL OK ہےسر۔۔

(Sir, kal sham hockey or volley ball kay inter unit match howay thay, hockey wo jeet gai, volley ball hum haar gai..baqi all ok hai sir)

Report was balanced to appear as 50/50 to d CO..it took a few seconds for d colonel to understand that they had lost both d matches..
