I remember back when I was in the service my buddy and I took a train from Misawa to Hachinohe Japan. We bought a bottle of bourbon and shared with ladies at the bar. We had a great return trip. I can still remember how fast you had to board or deboard the train. My buddy had passed out in the back of my mini truck when we got back to the base. I had to explain to the gate guard my friend was still alive and told me to go directly to the barracks. Not a problem since it was 3:00 am. Oh the days of being young and foolish.
