Knowing now that our strategy in Vietnam was to chew up as many lives and military hardware as possible without actually, you know, winning, I find myself more and more sympathetic to what Arlo was saying.

And it's a comedy classic even if I was not sympathetic. Among men of my age and slightly older, the phrase "Group W bench" gets an instant laugh.

I used that phrase the other day about a co worker who’d made a silly mistake. Half the room laughed. The other half wondered what was funny.
