15. Army SFC Milhouse took Sgt Shoemake and PFC Surfered to a Greek bar in Germany.

We drank shots of Ouzo. SFC Milhouse played a game with the owner involving holding 0-3 matches in your hand, unseen by your opponent. They took guesses as to how many total matches there were. The loser bought shots of Ouzo for all of us.

I was not much of a drinker.

We finally left. I asked Milhouse to stop the car so I could vomit in the street. I have not had any Ouzo these 55 years since.

My advice to you is if you don't care for anise, don't drink Greek Ouzo. surfered Jul 3 #8
