Fifty years ago today I left high school early (I had enough credits to graduate) and joined the US Navy.<br /><br />Was I the April Fool, or was Uncle Sam?
Obviously, you got your education later, and enjoy a lot of peace at the hideout after years of endeavor, must have been a help to the Navy, so I'd say its a wash, neither was the April fool.
JB,<br /><br />I would say it was a different time with a completely different set of ethics and beliefs.<br /><br />I for one, thank you for your service.<br /><br />Neither was the fool, we all benefitted.
the fool?<br />must be me.<br />i run out of fingers LONG before i can count to "fifty years ago today".<br /><br />not fersher, but think i run oudda toes too.<br /><br />(Thanx JB & God bless)
