Waiting to crack that beer after many hard days on the battlefield only to find......

[keithker]

So you bust your *** on the battlefield and believe you deserve a nice cold beer....you prop your feet up, light up a smoke (yeah smoking was a thing back then) and break out that long opener.....you crack open that can of beer but you don't hear a sweet sound you're accustom to and you don't see any foam rise up out of the big hole punch......What the......why does it smell like canned carrots.....
