Happy 49 Don - and it's nice to know that there's someone older than me here. We were married in Feb 1964.

Happy anniversary Don.


When you are at the checkout line and they ask if you found everything say "Why, are you hiding stuff?"

Happy Anniversary, Don! I turned 50 last September and I haven't married... yet. So, I will never get to see that wedding anniversary, I'm sure. Quite an achievement

Congrats, Don and Missus Don!

Marriage is a wonderful and sacred thing to be cherished.

And it ain't easy to stay married.

Takes plenty of everything to keep it together.

And as with anything else, good work pays off.

Many happy returns of the day, sir!

But I don't think you were the only ground-poundin' shavetail ta get married during bootcamp graduation leave, not by any means. I recall a few Airmen whose "honeymoon" was about ten minutes longer than the ceremony...

Hats off to you and the missus, Don.
The former and I only made it to 12 years - I can't even fathom 49.
The longest relationship I have of near that length is my J45.
There's a great song by a Canadian boy - the late Stan Rogers - "45 Years" - some nice picking,
you'll like it.

Awhile back i asked my wife if she remembered how many years we've been married.

She replied that it seemed like forever.

Not sure, but I think one could take that two ways...

Congratulations, Don, to both of you! May you share many more!

My wife and I were married in January, 1964. Every now and then, someone will ask me how long we’ve been married. My typical reply: “I’m proud to say we’ve had 32 happy years together.”

The usual response: “Gosh – that’s great.”

To which I reply, “Yup. 32 happy years out of 45 ain’t all that bad!”

Once, someone actually asked me “What’s the secret to your long marriage?”

My reply: “Just memorize a few key words, and be sure to repeat them to her at least once a month:

Yes, dear. You’re right, I’m wrong. It’ll never happen again.”

A guy once told me that it was his anniversary and that day marked 30 years of happiness.

Then he followed up by saying "One for me, and 29 for her"

Congratulations Don and the better half. Like you, we were married in the service too but right on Base at Camp Kilmer, NJ. We had our 60th last year. Keep going. You’ll make it.

harold,
camp kilmer, nj brings back memories...spent several weeks there waiting to ship out for germany on usns buckner. rode six bunks high in the very bow of the ship, where all the up/down action is, hoping and praying that the guy on the top bunk didn't get sick during the night.

Where I lived I could walk to Camp Kilmer. However, I was stationed at Fort Eustis VA at the time. I think Mac can walk to Fort Eustis or he is very close by. The reason I was married at Kilmer was all the family on both sides lived here in Jersey. No one had to travel to VA. It was 1949. I bet I would not know Fort Eustis today or even if it it still there.
