I used to go to Smith and Edwards in 1971-72. Man, what a huge operation it was. Walk in, and smell that smell. "Army Surplus smell". We lived in Roy and it was just a hop, skip and a jump from the house. When we were on our way to Willard Bay to water ski, if we need anything for our "Hobo Town" as my Father called it, we would stop by and run in.
In the summer all the families who water skied, about 8-10 families, would head out to Willard bay. It was all the people who worked out on Hill AFB, at Autonetics. The wives and kids left at noon with the camper and boat, and we set up camp and put the boats in. The men all came in around 17:00 and some of them only took off their shoes and rolled up their pant legs for the first run.
That year and a half gave me more pleasure then all the years before.
