Real story from my childhood !
"Me 14 of age. Military formed transitory garrison nearby, I tried sneaking in to quench my curiosity but failed.
Sparked this bright idea, Bicycled before commanding officer's jeep & salute him holding no handle. Fell straight into roadside pond.
He stopped laughing and asked why, issued entry pass after hearing my anecdote."
