General Meyer's marching his men through a Georgia valley when up on the mountain side he catches sight of a lone Confederate soldier.
"Whooeee Meyer! Is it true you're too cheap to smoke good Virginny tobbaccy & role mule muffins instead?"
"Colonel!" barks Meyer "Send a platoon up there & get that reb!"
So the patrol marches up the hillside & soon there’s a crashing & shooting & screaming. Then 10 minutes later the same Confederate re-appears on the mountain.
"Whooee Meyer! Is it true you wear your momma's brogans?"
"Colonel!" barks Meyer "Send a company up there & get that REB!"
So the company marches up the hillside & there's a crashing & shooting & yelling that goes on the rest of the day. Then as the sun is setting that same Confederate re-appears on the mountaintop.
"Whooeee Meyer! Is that your hair or are you wearing a dead posssum as a hat?"
"Colonel!" barks Meyer "Get the regiment up that mountain & GET THAT REB!"
So the colonel leads the entire regiment up to the mountaintop & there's a terrible crashing & shooting & screams for mercy that goes on all night, into the next day, into that night. Then as the dawn is breaking on the 3rd day Meyer sees a scraggly figure come crawling into camp. It's the colonel and as he nears he croaks
"General Meyer! It's a trap! There's TWO of them up there!"

Re: General Meyer's Trap
Just leave some bubble wrap out. The rebs always come a "runnin' " for that.
