Why do some hams just wanna be difficult?


Jim wasn't being difficult, just responding to an 'inside' comment.

About 40 years ago Jim and I worked together on Guam ("Duva" in the local
Chamorran lingo). "Duva Den" was the enlisted watering hole at the Naval
Communications Station. Consumption at happy hour (10-cents-a-can "Lucky
Lager", laced with formeldahyde for preservation during ocean shipment)
tended
to be liberal.

You can admire a photo of the "Duva Den" at

Hello, Hans

Did you forget that they introduced Old Milwaukee beer - a 16 oz can for a
*nickle*! You could be almost flat broke; all you needed was a quarter. I
got sloshed there a few times. Almost got in one guys face until I noticed
the stripes he had on ..... I shut my yap just in time
