Thumbs up

I used to dig C-Rats as long as it wassn't the Beanies and Weenies! Used to get the tiny 3 packs of cigs in them too. I have never smoked cigs so I'd save 'em up when we were out in the field so when guys would run out of their cigs and start climbing the trees, I'd sell them one of the 3 packs for a buck each. I was an enterprising guy back then! Come out of the field with more money than I went in with!

Either that, or me and the company commanders driver would sneak into the nearest 'Ville at night and get drunk with the cig money at a Gastehaus...:cheer:
