Mopar Manipulatin’ , HRM August ‘69
Back in 68 my bonus would have been about $10,000. I felt I would make that my first year back in civilain life. I actually made $8000 first year back and it only went up each year. When I left the Service I was making $180 a month and that was with the $30 for separate rations. I bought a 68 Road Runner Hardtop in Jan. of 68 and was paying $90 a month on the note. Good thing I got out in Oct of 68 and started a real job in Nov. of that year. Even when I was in the Service I worked 2 jobs and even with my real job. Extra money paid for Vacations and always had a new car.
