During a training session at an artillery unit the sergeant-major was busy describing how the sophisticated aiming device of the artillery weapon
system is used: 
 
"As you all know, there are 180 degrees in a circle." 
 
One of the soldiers put up his hand and said: "But there are 360 degrees in a circle, sergeant-major." 
 
"You idiot," replied the sergeant-major, "I am obviously speaking about a small circle!" 
 Received from Retief de Villiers.
