I use to carry two spare sets of glasses with me just in case. When they issued the conventional arms BCGs, we would buy a safety band that fitted to the glasses to keep them from falling off. Later they would issue the BCGs with arms with a wire rim that would go securely behind the ears to keep the glasses from falling off. I still could not pick up any girls with those glasses. After basic and advanced training, I ordered several pairs of Randolph Aviators and had prescription lens made for them. Then the girls always thought I was a military pilot and would go out with me!! LOL

Crab-- I sometimes forget that I am dealing with an international audience. Bill Clinton was President of the US and Monica was one of his interns in which Bill used a cigar was used as a sex toy while in the White House. LOL

Thanks. I was being funny, even over here we've heard of him and his charming wife.
Unfortunately.
