re: #478 pre-Boomer Marine brat
My squadron was home-ported at NAS Lemoore. Up in Fresno was a combination bar/Greek restaurant. Circa ‘65/66, it had a 25 year-or-such anniversary celebration. Spent the evening drinking wine, eating Greek horsedeverses (howeverthhell ya’ spell it), listening to the band and watching the dancing. (It was my introduction to the bouzoukee. Have about 30 Greek CDs today.) That evening, I was like a well-fed puppy getting his tummy rubbed!
I was born outside of Fresno in Firebaugh.. Nothing better than Greek food
