But when did they allow drinking beer in uniform at lunch time……. In the navy? Off base
And pilots no less…… back in the 80’s that was a no no……

That's why we just went and drank at the barracks at lunch.

Then some smart guy figured that we shouldn't be allowed to buy beer in uniform at the exchange until after 1630...so we just bought more the evening prior.

Damn when did they do that, I left Pendleton in 89 and we would get beer at the px and go drink our lunch down by the amtrack ramp at delmar

Agreed we did all that, but not off base in a restaurant

About '00. Ironically I was at 2nd Tracks most of my career. We never had anything like the Delmar E-club...just the PX and barracks bunnies.

When I was stationed in England in 84 we were allowed two beers at lunch. On or off base.
Pints are the perfect pairs.
