[GreenKeys] Vintage Military "Mill" Sought

[Don Cunningam]

Sorry this is a bit OT, but it is manual, has levers and bars to 
operate, etc.  I am seeking an old Navy "mill" (manual typewriter with 
an actual "1" on the top row of keys instead of using lower case L, ALL 
caps, even if it has shift keys, and a slashed zero on the top row).  I 
learned Morse Code in Radioman "A" School on one, used it later on the 
USS Edson (DD-946) and even took my FCC General Class license code test 
with one as I had much trouble translating how I had learned to using a 
pencil.  It is NOT as automatic as copying code groups without being 
able to see what you are typing. I was up to 22wpm + in school, even 
without the high speed class I couldn't attend, and want to try to get 
my copy speed back up to use some, and am reaching that old "barrier" 
with the pencil again. 74yr old hands just aren't as nimble as early 
20's ones!!

If anyone knows of one that might need a new home, or sees one in 
Craig's list, etc, I'd appreciate knowing about it.  I figure many of 
you may have used one and remember them.
73,
Don, WB5HAK
