The first thing I noticed as I scanned the postcards from Dad was the lack of postage. Granted, he was in the military; but he was CONUS (Continental United States) his entire tour. The postcards mailed from within CONUS by Great Uncle Paul Lesher had postage; the letter I mailed during the Vietnam War were free while in Vietnam, but required postage when I got home.

I'm curious as to the changes in policay.

Grading Monroe

Something everyone who ever had a class of his would like to do.

"How's daddie's boys getting along?"

Boys is plural. "How're (How are) Daddies' boys...", not. "How's (How is) Daddie's boys..."

Just because you have two boys doesn't change the singular "Daddy's" to the plural "Daddie's".

Proper: "How're Daddy's boys getting along?"

Grade: F!

WOW....that felt good!
