I don't believe the average person realizes how precarious the situation was in late 1942 and 1943.

Nope. At worst, we might have smoked a Black and Mild, but if memory serves me, this took place a couple of years before any of us smoked our first tobacco.

Oh what the hell. I have been posting on io9 for several years now and never told this story. Why? Because it is insane. But since I posted it on my blog a few years ago, I have already released it to the wild. Here is that blog post in its entirety. Feel free to label me a nutjob.
