Posted By: wedjetFor me, there was no romance of 60's radicalism. Fort Knox, Kentucky 1969. I had just finished Basic training and was assigned to Ft Knox. Was involved in the beginning of an anti war GI coffeehouse. We were fire bombed at night while 5 people were living upstairs (including myself and a 1 year old child of friends). And it was 40 years ago this year!
