Scope & Content:
Short recounting of a story from Bender's time aboard LST-901. The story recounts the amount of Coca-Cola drunk aboard LST-901 and the collection of the bottles from those drinks. Bender claims that by their return to the US the ship had collected about "10,000" bottles and that upon returning them to the bottling plant in San Francisco they received "over $200 and $200 in 1946 would be like $2000 today."
