      Happened to a friend of mine. He met his wife when they served together. She got injured and sent home while he was deployed when he got back he was served his accounts were cleaned out and the house was sold. Idk how she did it but she left him destitute for another woman. It was a few years before they passed the laws protecting soldiers from things like that.

Interestingly his house if very nice would’ve been worth a similar amount. Then his girlfriend gets hired at around $55K to start. I remember 1969 quite well. This guy would’ve been rich.

      Depending on what country the main character is actually from, marines may earn quite a lot, way more than you imagine, and noticably more than infantry. There's the regular wages, then there's the bonus for being abroad, another bonus for being subject to dangerous situations, a bonus for weekends and shifts, a bonus for being on standby while off-duty.. It adds up! I know in my country, marines even get the danger bonus for just being placed on a ship, no matter where the ship is, because, just in case someone happens to fall over board, the resident marine will have to dive in for the rescue. So yeah, danger money includes remotely potential danger.

    The comments about the sewage trash calling out insults really brought back horrible memories from my time in that era. Berkeley was the biggest septic tank in the country back then (probably still is). When we out-processed in San Francisco we were NOT allowed to wear our uniforms home but had to transition to civvies because it wasn't safe. Unlike a former yellow bellied coward that eventually was elected President along with another yellow bellied coward named Cassius Clay, we didn't want to go but we had signed up to serve so many of us went. I was in an MOS that prevented me from going in country even though I signed up twice to go but I got the same treatment back in the States. I lost a lot of friends and some of my high school classmates. To this day there is a bond between the vets of that era that is impossible for civilians to understand. We may never have served at the same time or in the same outfits but because of how we were treated it just makes us feel something for each other. Today, this country has finally pulled it's collective head out of it's anal cavity and most treat the Vietnam era vets with respect, something that is around five decades overdue.

      I was going to be drafted in '72 with a Lottery # of 27. So I didn't wait for the notice and just joined. So instead of US I was RA. I had no idea what a difference that would make but it sure did. Lifers treated me better. In 1966 I heard my guardian angel/higher self/spirit guides or whatever you want to call the entity(ies) that we all are able to communicate with if only we learn to listen. Anyway, Gen. Westmoreland was addressing a joint session of Congress when I got home from school and flipped on the TV. He said the Viet Nam War would be won in 6 months. That's when I heard my Guide for the first time.
      "He's lying," the wee voice in my head that sounds like any other thought.
      "He's lying," It repeated. "This war is going to go on and on forever. This war is probably going to involve you. THIS WAR IS PROBABLY GOING TO KILL YOU!!"
      Now by this time I'm freaking out. Like the hairs on my arm are standing up. I'm freaked and spooked and scared. Remember, it was 1966. The protest didn't start until after Tet in '67 and I was a child of the '50's. That meant that I was raised on John Wayne, Roy Rogers and the Lone Ranger. We were the good guys who wore the white hats. In war, we always won and America was always morally superior to everybody else. So I had no reference point for those thoughts, which is how I realized they originated outside my skull.
      I'm going to very briefly verify this very weird idea. I was 44 when I wondered why I hadn't heard this "Voice" more than 4 or 5 times in my life. My Guide yelled at me "Because you haven't learned to listen!"
      I spent the next 6 years learning. Teaching myself. Talking to other people I could see had spiritually advanced souls who confirmed my experience. Then at 50 I was told in a vision quest to get a teacher. I did and spent 12 more years with a world renown Healer/Teacher. Still I held on to my "I might be crazy!" card, not fully buying into this whole crazy idea. But then one of my students gave me a book by Robert Anton Wilson, and it was really out there. Yet I read it and understood it fully. And he confirmed finally once and for all to me that, no, I wasn't crazy, and yes, this communication is real. Dig it.
      So what happened in the Army? It went down just like my Guide had warned me. In the summer of '72 I got orders to train a sentry dog and take it to Viet Nam. Summer of '72 was when the North Vietnamese launched a major offensive including tanks, while the US wound down our engagement. And they were going to make me a sentry dog handler... you know- the first guy you kill! I knew I was doomed. But the thing about the multiverse is you never know whats going to happen in any specific universe. So the last day of secondary training (AIT) my hand got about half cut off in a horrific barracks accident. And then a few weeks after getting out of the hospital I get robbed and shot with a 12 gauge shotgun. Point blank range.
      Somehow I lived. The Army decided I was torn up enough and cancelled the Nam orders, sending me to Korea instead. Korea was wonderful and that tour allowed me to give my country some good service.
      But though I never set foot in Viet Nam, no way anybody can tell me I wasn't in that war.
      I'm an honorably discharged disabled vet, and because I lived I was able to tell the police were the guys who shot me lived as I'd spent the previous night crashed at their place. They ended up with 13 felony counts, including murder, my attempted murder, 2 rapes, 2 beatings of old couples and assorted other crimes. Taking all three of those guys off the street was my REAL service to my country. And I didn't have to go overseas and make war on people who'd never done anything to me. I just had to survive the night after my guts were blown out. God came and sat with me for a while. I thought I was going to die, but in the presence of pure love- God, or maybe the badly misnamed Grim Reaper (Grin Reaper more like it. The cat's the best!) I knew my soul would be alright and I wasn't afraid. But when the ambulance rolled up, I knew right then I was going to live. And so I did.

    It seems we shouldn't miss some woman from 50 yrs ago. But probably miss many other people of that period.

      Yes just like the Phillips Micro Cassette wasn't invented before 1967, when that was the inaugural introduction of the format.

      Were you able to acquire and employ a hidden microphone to record conversations in between booths at a diner in 1979? This author believes it was easily possible in 1968. 😂

      Yes because Micro cassette Recorders weren't a thing in the 60s.

      @@Ichijoe2112 The micro-cassette was invented in 1969 about 7 years after the cassette tape everyone knows and loves. Since neither made it into the consumer market until the 70's, you can be sure that Radio Shack would not have had it in stock. Definitely a specialty item that didn't gain any popularity until the early 80's albeit brief. The 8 track of the 1960's had a longer lifespan.

      @@mrquicky Who need a Radio Shack when the PX/BX/NX exists, and had access to more exotic goods (local to SE Asia / Europe), than the local Mom & Pop Shops back then. Hell I'm more inclined to believe that Radio Shack wasn't a Thing back then. At least not as a Gen Xer would have known it. i.e. as a hole in the wall in the Mall junk shop.
