Intersting. I was at Casey in the early 70’s. The ville got old real quick, and I found other things to do on my free time, like smoke pot, which was everywhere and cheap. There was a lot of looking the other way among officers and NCOs regarding marijuana usage, and pot smokers were rarely busted. But, we tended to avoid excessive alcohol consumption, and rarely got involved in troublesome incidents on or off post. Those who raised hell and caused trouble were definately in the newbie/shortimer category, and always fueled by alcohol. I was a company clerk and processed the article 15’s in the company and that was the case then as it apparently is now. It was a different time and a different Army.
