“No. Next question.”
At the ripe old age of 16, I was a seaman serving on a Destroyer off the coast of Cuba during the Cuban Missile Crisis.
It always grated on me that I could be in the military and still not be old enough to vote.

At the ripe old age of 16, I was a seaman serving on a Destroyer off the coast of Cuba during the Cuban Missile Crisis. I enlisted in '61 and the minimum age at the time was 17 for a kiddie cruise. How did you get in at 16 a year later?
