    I'm guessing after the band you were on the seal team?

    Know exactly what you mean, when I came back to the states I notice most of the kids coming into the service had a choice jail or the Armed Forces.And that made it twice as hard for the ones that enlisted :blackalien: \V/

    I had thought there were a lot of service people who chose it over jail, but doing some reading on the net mostly convinced me that there were very few that chose that path.

    1977 is one year prior to my birth but my dad's name was Jeff so I suppose that's why I have built so many Jefferson sets

    Japan Pick-78Aa No date, issued in 1945. Lists at $35 in VG but this note doesn't come close to that.

    Quite the contrary in my experience; the Army had so much trouble filling allocations in the aftermath of Viet Nam that it was barely an "Army" in terms of attitude during the six years I was Active. It was only towards the end of that period, with Reagan in office, that things began showing true military discipline again. Then again, I was Military Intelligence and often worked in a suit despite my Enlisted rank, so my experience differs. :)

    Like I said jail or the service. My last duty station was Camp Lejeune, I was going down the South Florida one weekend and a fellow Marine that I went to high school with wanted to get a ride I later found out that that Marine went AWOL and was one of the individuals who had that choice jail or the service you probably know a lot more than I did about the people in the service thanks for your quote :blackalien: \V/

    Funny. I was AI also during Vietnam and got sent to 116th MI in DC after my tour in Nam. Actually spending a few days in Nam at the end of the month. Should be interesting.

    I have been meaning to get back to you and thank you for that information I will put it with the note. I actually picked this node up in Subic Bay Philippines in 76 and paid one peso for it, I think it's worth at least one peso now even in bad shape as it is, and as you said history I can just imagine one of the Japanese soldiers using this note in the Philippines. Oh well that's all history now.:blackalien: usmc

    I just realized something: 2016 minus 1977 equals the sea cruise I took to England in 1977. :p
