Wise of you to start this blog, Tintin. I should venture a comment about mine on my blog, which is often about fathers and sons and wives, anyway.<BR/><BR/>Son of an aviator here, and friend to many brats at my prep school.

My father also tried to keep me from the Army and told me to go Coast Guard but I was Army bound regardless of his advice. The Army was what I knew as a kid. I had no idea what the Coast Guard was all about.

That's a record. I suppose that's civilian life, but it sure is strange. And we quit being military in 1976. Although my folks bought a new house in 1983, a year before I went to college. Wish I had the wealth of photos that you do.<BR/><BR/>One of Easy and Elegant Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09951907004091808223noreply@blogger.com
