The first year I ever went to an NHRA drag race. The top fuel dragsters were usually above 9 second ET's then, but they smoked the tires almost to the finish line, fun to watch.
Vietnam and Cuba were in the news a lot.
My buddy and I shot his dad's .264 Win. mag. with a scope. The first year I had shot a rifle with a scope, it was a Redfield if remembering correctly.
It was the first year I went to a Mexican border town.
I was working in a grocery store after school and on weekends trying to save money to buy a used car when I got my license. Life seemed good from my perspective.
