Does nobody ever smile in pictures? My DL, and even my military ID has me smiling :)

They wouldn't LET you smile in those pictures.

The day I got out, it took them a LONG LONG time to get the pic for my reserve ID. I just couldn't keep a straight face! :)

Actually, that's NOT my stereo. ;)

But I DO still have a large L.P. collection and a turn table to play them on. :)

How's the hairline under that hat? :laugh:

I ask because I'm a member of the fivehead club myself.

Nice HT setup there behind you. How many channels does your friend get on that set? :laugh:

Salutes Brutuskend. You were in the service around the Vietnam war, right? I don't think you were sent overseas though were you?

I was in from 1971 to 1976 but no, I didn't go overseas. I was a Jet Aircraft Mechanic.

I have a friend who was in the Air Force during that time as a mechanic. He actually stayed in until the early 90s. Very interesting guy...tons of great stories. Still, I was barely out of diapers when he was in Vietnam.

Back is fine here, front is a little high.
