When we were children if you showed up at our local McDonald’s in a Halloween costume you got a free small fries. They were usually 15 cents (I think).
When I was enlisted as soon as I got to my Permanent Party base after 42 weeks of training I was immediately placed on Separate Rations for $82 per month. The Chow Hall started charging us by the item so it was too expensive to eat on base. A local Taco Tico (Wichita, KS) down the street always had 5 for a dollar tacos and two Sanchos for a buck. Ate like kings instead of starving.
Texas Taco Tico looks mighty good.
