Jumped on the Jerome Ave. train and went to my draft board on Gerard Avenue. Proudly brought my birth certificate, which they stamped and signed so I could use it until I received the "official" card in the mail. Went directly to our local bar, Angie's at Kingsbridge Rd. and Bailey Ave., and Had my first "legal" beer. And to think, only a few years after that guys were actually burning their draft cards. I still have mine. Reference ID: BX92398 Responses:
