I just saw an episode where Radar takes a writing class by correspondence. It didn't paint DL in the most favorable light, but interesting nonetheless. Bruce
That was then, this is now. Klinger also tried his hand at DL. You have to give folks credit for at least trying. Even with current modern conveniences it's difficult, and our military have less than ideal conditions. I wonder if Klinger or Radar ever used the excuse of, "the No. Koreans blew up my homework." ?
Eloquent and poignant testament to the progress made in the last half a century under their Dear Leader, and his dad, Great Leader, is that currently, the most plausible excuse would be: the North Koreans ate my homework. Lawrie Miller BA in 4 Weeks http://geocities.com/BA_in_4_Weeks .
"My homework was kidnapped by operatives of the North Korean intelligence apparatus during the 1980s. The Dear Leader, regrets this intrusion upon the sovereignty of its neighbor's homework, but-- with firm resolution to the True Path pioneered by the Great Leader-- assures that the responsible parties have been dealt with."
If membory serves, in the classic (late 40s) version of "Miracle on 34th Street" the evil "psychologist" was accused of obtaining his degree from a correspondence school. Tony
