A group of recruits were learning how to set up tents. One recruit managed to get the tent poles all tangled up like a big mess of spaghetti.

Well, here's a funny marine story. A group of scuba divers once encountered a very curious octopus. It kept changing colors and wrapping its tentacles around their fins in a friendly, not scary way.

One funny story is about a Royal Marine who was doing a training exercise in a very muddy field. He slipped and ended up face - first in the mud right in front of his sergeant.

Here's one. A group of octopuses in an aquarium once managed to open the lids of their tanks at night.

Sure. One story is about a recruit who was so nervous during drill that he started marching in the wrong direction while the rest of the platoon went the other way.
