[QUOTE="Honolulu Dick, post: 1244713, member: 24745"]To begin, Collector Jhinton, is to be lauded for his service to our grateful Nation. Also, that he served with the proud and fearless 82nd Airborne Division ... the All American[s]. Jumping out of the safety of perfectly flying aircraft, into the dangers of the unknown, is the job of heroes. Good on you!!! Becoming hooked wasn't exactly a moment in time. It was a series of closely related events. During the mid-portion of the last century, myself and two others took a camping trip around the US of A. We visited 22-states, covered 9700-miles and burned 623-gallons of gasoline. Once a day, we would stop for a cooked meal. Otherwise, it was sandwiches or out-of-the-can cold. While traveling through WY, MT and ID, we were given our change in silver dollars. One was a '21 Peace and another was an early Morgan CC. This was the start of my enduring romance with Big Silver. About that tip ... Where have all the good times gone? XXX XXX XXX One flag, one language and one nation under God. XXX XXX XXX[/s][/QUOTE]
