This goes back to the time when the best way to get from San Francisco to Los Angeles was by train - usually overnight. This particular evening two mature women of a certain age embarked at San Francisco and found their way to their double compartment. The train was fully booked and the last passenger on board was a four stripe Naval Officer. When the conductor led him to his berth they found it occupied by the two ladies and the train was by then well under way. As the embarrassed conductor was trying to figure out what to do, one of the women spoke up saying "We are all mature adults, I'm sure we can work out some accommodation." The Captain straightened up and said "Madam, I am an officer of the United States Navy and a gentleman - the arrangement you are proposing is totally unacceptable - one of you must leave"!! (My apologies if I have repeated this one)
