Way too soon and a horrible way to go. May God bless him for his service especially on this day.

I did———the only thing that caught my eye is the UPC on the side of one carton.

That was it. No UPCs in the 1950s.

The Japanese couldn’t kill my dad. My Mom said he was too tough to die. They were married in 1944. I was a lucky kid to have a Dad like him.

Black markets are caused by government regulations. Why should I bother doing it? The demand will be met by many others.

Got his start with four free cigarettes in each K ration. <<

it didn't change with C-rations ...the booty was a very little pad of toilet paper a P-38 and 4 smokes...maybe some matches...I need to open another one of those lil brown sealed package's to see if there was sugar, coffee and more booty too....I lived on adrenalin...not sugar..but i did gain a few pounds on them....lol

Happy Veterans Day to all my Brothers and a special thanks to your Dad..but IMHO the cigarettes didnt kill him..that war did...Praise him well today....

This is just a money grab for the French government....and that's all it is. They could care less about the health of their people.....the more Revenue the French Gov. has coming into their coffers the better their seat at the Globalist Governance table.....which determines their place setting once it's set in place.

Keith Richards may even flee France and move to Monaco.

Not a very far trip.
