About a generation ago, a young lady told about being in a navy boot camp, sitting down to chow with one of her mates — who apparently had one of everything on her tray. Referring to their drill instructor (or whatever is the naval equivalent), she told her mate, “Chief said she wanted us ship-shape, not ship-shaped.”
