    This is, I believe, the best joke telling I’ve seen from Norm. The way he almost adopts a character when he gets to the Uncle Terry part and progresses through the war flashback, getting more and more ASMR and even affecting a kind of old timey war captain kind of cadence etc, not to mention the “faaaaarr from these shores” bit and then staring off into nothing when he recalls the troop abandoning him.
