Wow gypski, you guy's on Okinawa were really getting ripped off!

I lived in Vientiane, Laos and then in Udorn, Thailand for a bunch of years in the late 60's and early 70's (civilian contractor). $5 US would buy 7-8 bricks (20 sticks/brick) depending on the time of year.

I don't even want to tell you how much Pannama Red cost in the US Canal Zone during the late 1950's!

Ahhhh, the good old days.
