A new recruit and in-charge of the officers' mess long ago, my father was preparing for the visit of a high-ranking officer. He instructed the mess havaldar to put some magazines on the center table of the VIP room. Later, when he returned for inspection, he did find a few magazines on the table - the kind that holds bullets in a gun.
Reeling from a sore throat, cough, sneezes and body aches, I finally broke down and dragged myself to the ship's infirmary. After a full examination, I was diagnosed with a virus, which, the medic said, was going around.
"You probably caught it from a shipmate," he told me. "But don't worry. It's not contagious."
