[BIGLOOK]

My Dad retired from the Navy in '60. In October '62, we all sat around the kitchen table waiting for the phone to ring again recalling him to active service. His sea bag was packed.

I was in a hot war, a proxy war....but everywhere else the SOS was going on in the Cold War.

Important work, especially in ‘62. Like I said, if we weren’t prepared to go to war, we would have. The enemy never asks your permission to attack.
