Here's a nice submission for the Blog courtesy of Lyndell Lane, and forwarded to me by Allen Seich. A Peden Barracks PX receipt from 1961. Thanks guys! When I was there in the late 80s we had the PX, a bookstore, a gas/convenience store, a commissary and a stereo/CD store. I don't remember if we had a Class VI store or not (we preferred the local bier store across the river).Tuesday, June 30, 2009

PX
It sure brings back memories.First
and foremost of buying an expensive
German camera for a college friend.
I believe there was clothes outlet
from Hong Kong co. offering so-
called handmade suits,very reason-
able and nice.I didn't buy any because there was no reason
for it.However I purchased some
shirts from a store on Regents St.
and wonderful sports coat on Carna-
by St.London.I'd loved going to PX.
only real outlet in buying personal
items.One big problem, we didn't
have much spending money.Haircut
was .25 not bad,only one style, short.German barbers had a field day,in and out for soldiers.Peden
Barracks ,72nd F/A (SC)
