drafted
I borrowed this from a muzzleloading forum I'm a member of...hope you enjoy
Fifty-one years ago, Herman James, a North Carolina mountain man, was
drafted by the Army.
On his first day in basic training, the Army issued him a comb.
That afternoon the Army barber sheared off all his hair.
On his second day, the Army issued Herman a toothbrush.
That afternoon the Army dentist yanked seven of his teeth.
On the third day, the Army issued him a jock strap.
The Army has been looking for Herman for 51 years.

adal...
Thank you very much, you don't have any idea how much that means to me. I;m pretty much confined to the hooch and the VA hosp. The only reason for the move is my wife, soon to be ex, is tired of taking care of a cripple, been in a wheelchair pretty much since Aug 2001.
I was invited to move to Phoenix by a friend who is an Army Vietnam Vet, Wayne is taking me in and taking care of me till,,,,
I'd be more than happy to have your company at my new hooch and will drop you the addy and #.
Thanks again
God Bless
