Gil,

YES, times have changed since 1965. Let us recall we were paid $128.02 per month as E-3s. Gasoline was 26 cents per gallon, haircuts on base were 90 cents and cigaretts were 17 cents per pack at the PX.

We did, in fact, buy every military arm our meager financial resources allowed and can now, today, enjoy the escalation in value of all the stuff we knew were good deals back then. We still have all the good stuff and are better for it, eh, wot?

Adam
