Brooke: I was only 20 years old when discharged. Not much of a trade learned prior
to my elistment. First job after the war was a gas pump jockey, then a machine operator, then back to running my trapline during trapping season. I qickly got wise and
beleived the comming thing was refrigeration and air conditioning and was correct. This
trade, is and continues to be growing even yet. This was a lucky guess for me as I stuck to it for over 40 years and made a good living and retirement..
