Dan, I'm voting for Urban Legend. Can't be TWO women that dumb

On my first tour [JUN66-JUN67] shipping stuff home was pretty easy. They were pretty lax about screening stuff......on both ends. Along with their tape decks, stereos, etc., guys were sending home grenades, C-4, broken-down automatic weapons, and dope. Hell, probably coulda' got a Jeep home in pieces. When I was back in '68, they were x-raying everything and puting sniffer dogs on packages. Became a little tougher to get the cool stuff
back to The World.
