Fort Myers High School, Fort Myers, FL.
Me too! Caprock High School, Amarillo, TX.
Hell of a decade for a kid to grow up in, innocence was still prevalent and we were not quite jaded…
I know. I was in the Military in ’71, doesn’t seem THAT long ago.
You young whippersnappers take note. YOUR turn is coming! And sooner than you think!!
Sophomore in high school in 72. Might feel old when I hit my 80s.
I was 22 and married for a year after two tours in Nam.
Yikes, In 72 I was 28 yo and was test flying broken air planes. Shit now you made me feel old !!
Hey Phil, you have a bunch of old farts on here! And I’m one of them…
16 for most of 72. Viet Nam winding down and trying to find a date keep most of my attention then.
Thanks, I didn’t need that. Now I have to figure out how to get up without making noises.
I miss (not “missed”) ’72
I was flunking out of college in ’72. Kept going back, but my GPA was a total wreck.

I’m seeing a lot of accolades from Yer big brothers as well. HAR!
Cheers!
