You, like me, must have had a VOLAR rug, VOLAR bedspread and VOLAR rug in our VOLAR barracks.

The VOLAR beer machine in the day room didn't last long.

The VOLAR beer machine in the day room didn't last long.

It lasted about as long as the regular (and highly attended) "Friday afternoon strip shows at the O'Club". From what I was told, the new CG's wife made the mistake of visiting the O'Club on a Friday afternoon in '78. That did it for the Friday afternoon festivities.

Such fond memories...and who could forget the "Beaumont for Lunch Bunch", featuring strippers during the noon hour.

By the time I got to Germany in '77, the rugs & bedspreads had run out.
