First and foremost, Happy 99th Birthday, Richard.
Thank you so very much for your service and for playing a role in creating "the Greatest Generation"
Here are a few other flashbacks of note when you were born:
What did things cost?
A brand new Chevrolet two-person Roadster (photo) sold for $570
Gallon of gas – 25 cents or two bits
Dozen eggs – 13 cents
Pound of bacon – two bits
Pound of butter – 43 cents
Aspirin, 12 pills – 10 cents
Toothpaste, Pepsodent – 39 cents
Wishing you a very Happy Birthday, Richard, and many more...
