Tanstaafl1969

That was it. Tried Mizzou and dropped out in '67, joined USMC and got to visit Vietnam in '69. After coming back extended for 2 more years for Embassy Security Guard duty and got a year in Moscow in '70, year in Lisbon in '71. Got interested in heath care, went to SLU got a BA Biology & Chem in '78 and a BS in Nursing in '79. After working years in ER I joined the US Army Reserve, commissioned 1LT in '92. Got to see beautiful downtown Bosnia in '97 and Iraq in '03, retired with 20 years in '05. Now I'm retired from everything! Interesting thing about Mizzou was that a fellow SLUH grad, Kevin Sweeny, talked me into pledging Theta Kappa Phi, "The Catholic Fraternity". Kevin's brother was already an active in it. Was a big mistake. Worked my ass off to pay room & board & college, parent could not help. I quit the same day the fraternity blackballed me because I wasn't their kind of party animal. Tried living in a rented basement room for a couple of months but didn't know what the hell I wanted to do so dropped out. Figured I join the Marines because if I was going to Vietnam I might as well go with volunteers than with guys who have been dragged kicking and screaming to go.

This is what I best remember. I used a "car window sticker" like this on both sides of my football helmet at our last game as seniors. Coach Martel liked it.

Thanks, it was the '58-'70 one I was looking for. It seemed the most common use to me both in high school and later at SLU 75-79. The later ones all look like the "Grinch Who Stole Christmas!"

I graduated from St. Louis University High in 1966...from SLU in 1978 & 1979. I have seen a lot of Bilikens represented over the years but I cannot find any of those old examples. Where can I find one, anyone know?
