T5, so you were 21 in about 68--makes you about 69 now. I got past "shavetail" by the time I made it to Vietnam, but was there as 1st Lt and then Capt.

The math says that with 40 people, the odds of a matching birthday are about 50/50, so perhaps there is still someone else...

Was born on 9/29 so missed it by one day.

45 years old here.

I was born on July the 4th.

The nation's BiCentennial was on my 12th birthday!

Absolutely fantastic birthday to have. Fireworks, warm summer weather, and never have to work on your birthday, and good warm mood everywhere.

Wouldn't trade my birthday for anything
