"Now, when I was in the army, I was stationed in Germany. Another guy in my unit, his father owned a camera shop in New York, and he started buying german cameras and sending them back to his father to sell in the shop. He told me that they were making all kinds of money, because they couldn't get those german cameras in the states.
I was stationed in Germany, which was pretty good. It was the Korean war, and all the fighting was several thousand miles away. I was in Germany, in Army Intelligence. I was in the signal corps, which is part of intelligence. I liked being there, because it was safe. I'll tell you, Grandma liked me being there too.
So, my buddy in my unit, he told me that I ought to send some stuff home to my wife, and I asked him what I should send, and he told me to get some china. So, I went down to this shop, and they had all kinds of china. So, I got the brochure, and I sent it home to your grandmother. She picked out the pattern that she liked, and I went and bought it for her."
