I shoulda started off... Wright-Patterson AFB,Dayton, Ohio, 1956. But was raised all over the place on AFBs. including Glasgow, MT where my Iowa born father started me and my brother hunting, then eventually to SoCal when I was 12. I didn't hunt again until at the age of about 16 it surfaced in me again when my brother and some friends started hunting local vacant city fields in the area south of Los Angeles late at night for cottontails with a bbgun. Sheeesh! The cops would lock up a kid for that now. But back then, they just let us off with a warning.
