It took the U.S. Army to get me my first tractor ride. I was stationed in Alverado Tx. in 1965&66. I worked only at night and had my days off. I went to work in a cotton mill hauling filled cotton wagons out of a muddy field and over to the mill. Used an 8N most of the time and also an H Farmall. No one showed me how to operate a tractor. I just said OK and got on and made friends with it. Had the most fun driving the tractors into town to gas them up. I had no farming background and was the only one at the mill that could get the farmall started. Had to hand crank it.When someone would ask how I was able to get it running, I would just say that it was a matter of making friends with it. I was 22 years old at the time.
