[CW] HERE IS FILE FOR "Finger Play"

[John Bohnovic]

Back in the 60s my Navy Speed Key license required a demonstration that I 
could send and receive at 30 WPM. I actually did sit down and they ran me 
through the testing procedure when I aboard the USS Hazelwood, DD-531.

However, when I was aboard the USS Randolph the chief never had time to 
test me, but about two weeks after I was discharged I received a beautiful 
Speed Key certificate.

Fun days, too bad I didn't realize it at the time.
