8-2. What do you remember from 1982?

Not much. I remember my mother being pregnant with my brother. For the Millenials in the audience, here’s the Wikipedia rundown:

I think I hit on this one after riding back to my MIL’s house over a bridge I remember a trip over as a young kid. I was riding in the backseat of one of these: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ford_LTD_II

My great aunts in the front seat taking me home after my brother had been in surgery nearby.

I remember a couple of things from 1983. When my ada was still alive, one of the ships we were working on was one he’d dealt with when he was on active duty.

He said something to the effect that he’d loaded ammunition on that ship in Egypt in `983. With a convoy of Russian trucks....

My memory really starts to kicks in about 1984 or 1985. I think that memory of the ride with my great aunts would have been probably early 1985.

I’m curious about the research on memory retention.
