WOW, exactly 57

[BlasterBob]

Yeah WOW. Exactly 57 years ago today (June 9, 1955), I joined the U.S. Army for a three year enlistment. Joined to be a Small Arms Repairman (MOS 421.10 back in those ancient days) NO, I didn't specialize in the repair of muzzle loaders/flint locks etc)
My-O-My how the time does fly.[BooHoo]

Thank you for your service.

At first I laughed. Then I realized Ike was president when I was born. Then I quit laughing so much.

Yeah, I sure am![Beer]

Preposterous how could anyone think you worked on flint locks. I'm sure they were using cap locks by the time you enlisted.[Muaha]

All kidding aside thanks for your service. [Beer]

You're very close to my dad's age. Thanks for your service and input here on the forum.

I would like to know what you have forgotten.

Well, believe it or not, I have really NOT forgotten very much and don't feel that my memory really has started to slip just YET!
I do remember a LOT of stuff but it is probably considered mostly insignificant garbage (like most of my posts).[Stooge]

Just around 2.5 months (plus 27 years) from my enlistment anniversary date.
