Around that age (1955) I was living in England and attending the
American School at Bushy Park, London. Dad was stationed at Woodbridge
Air Base, in East Anglia, and later at Weathersfield, near Colchester.
I remember visiting nearby Maiden Castle and a little later, Stonehenge.

At the same age (but in 1954) I was living in Munich and going by
special arrangement to the school for American Army kids there. My
family was happily living on the German economy, and the Army kids
felt sorry for me, as if it must be an awful privation. They'd lend me
their Post Exchange cards and I'd pick up toilet paper and toothpaste
and Kotex, which we really did prefer to the German equivalents.

***That explains it! Funnily enough, at the same age I was living in
Berlin and although British I was sent to the American school there.
That's where I was introduced to Baby Ruth bars; Sun-Maid Raisins;
salted popcorn; peanut butter and root beer. Never grew out of those!***
