The public was not aware back then of the process of getting an associate degree that qualifies you to be an entry level mechanic and then getting a four year degree in Engineering Technology by taking the 3rd and 4th years. I was not at the time or I would have done so.

I once had a matrimony seeking lady friend who referred to me as a "Grease Monkey". I suspect she is still seeking. Greenfield Village has a line shaft drive system on display which tells how the term originated.

[Cecil Bearden] That is the OSU tech Institute at Okmulgee OK.   About 100 Mi East/Southeast of Stillwater, OK.   I wanted to go there and be an injection pump specialist.  My folks did not approve of me being an old Grease Monkey......
Therefore I ended up going to Engineering School and trying to work on tractors and trucks in the meantime.  

[James] I guess that means "Not Antique". Cecil has been holding out on us.
