During the Cold War, I would gaze at the Tropostatic Scatter Scanner and Microwave Antenna that were the sole communication between the 6th Fleet and America as I slowly fell asleep under the steel monstrosities I was sworn to defend.as the desert stretched far and wide.

I was on border guard in Germany with the 2nd Armored Cavalry during the Berlin crisis. Those were definitely the “?” old days.
