566　Everything in Duplicate 什么都要雙份

Military cost-cutting has hit everything, including toilet paper. Only the cheapest graces our latrines. So when a couple of boxes filled with the two-ply tissue fell in our laps, it was like manna from heaven. But, it was all a mistake. The boxes had been intended for the officers club. “I should have known,” grumbled the supply sergeant. “Our officers demand everything in duplicate!”

削減軍費(fèi)已經(jīng)影響到每一件事，包括廁所用的手紙。只有最便宜的才會(huì)賜給兵營的廁所用。因此，當(dāng)我們收到兩箱雙層手紙的時(shí)候，就像天上掉嗎哪（注：圣經(jīng)故事）一樣。但是，這是一個(gè)錯(cuò)誤。這兩箱是要發(fā)往軍官俱樂部的。軍需中士嘟囔著說：“我早該知道，我們的軍官什么都是要雙份的?！?
