76TH USArmy Band 1962-1965. Served in France. Flew from Ft. Dix, NJ to Orleans during the Cuban missile blockade, all the troop ships were diverted to that situation.
Left Bremerhaven on a troop ship, eight of us from my unit were supposed to be the Ship's Band, but we never played. We could feel the ship's bow rising and falling as we hugged the commodes in the head.
Eight days of that with no seasickness medicine.
I've never been seasick since that ordeal, so it must've cured me.
