1968 reloaded

This is the first in a series of remembrances of 1968. In that year, my parents moved to a new home, I changed schools and was the first kid in class to wear wide bell bottoms.


Also....

On January 30th 1968, the Tet Offensive was launched by the North Vietnamese. The Offensive, which lasted until September 1968, set the stage for the eventual withdrawal of U. S. forces.

1968 was also the year that Serge Gainsbourg and Jane Birkin met on the set of Slogan.
