Please teach me the meaning, will you? の意味は?

I don' catch the meaning of the following joke (Murphy's millitary law)--
"If you really need an officer in a hurry, take a nap."

Please teach me its meaning, will you?

Sure.

You are in the military. You have a boss, the officer (将校). He is always busy. When you need to see him quickly, you can take a nap. The officer will come to you immediately and yell at you. He may be angry, but you’ve got his attention.
