But really, Delicate on a washer for the military? The Marines would want something tougher than a TR.

The white might be for the Navy for the white sailor uniforms - they have to be spotless when they line up on the ship!

Actually, I think this is for older Speed Queen models.

Actually, I thought the settings on a military washer would be for different branches of the service, with the Marines having the most intense cycle. Space Force would not have one since all their uniforms are dry cleaned.

Chetlaham Is this for real oor is this a machine panel you made up? I would think an Army machine might have a camoflage cycle, a Navy one a whites cycle and blue cycle, and an Air Force one a blues cycle.

I have to wonder: Did the Westinghouse front loader back then cost about the same, adjusted for inflation, as a Speed Queen front loader today?

I wonder what, if adjusted for inflation, a Westinghouse front loader from the 60s would cost today, I suspect as much as a Speed Queen at $2400

Dryer sheets were heavily used at a bad place in my life, it was a college and students often used multiple sheets. Later, someone used multiple sheets in the neighborhood and it was triggering.

Well Yes, but I don't know if any more exist anymore that are not worn out and are there any parts anymore?

eeezuss! Calm down Chet! You're liable to crap your pants. :poop: Chet, I cannot help but ask: Are you getting enough fiber in your diet? I don't think you are. Metamucil every day for the rest of your life will keep you and me happy.

I can tell you are from Pennsylvania, our typical breakfast.

Consumer reports rates a Hamilton Beach model that makes pop up toast high. GE toaster ovens turned into Black and Decker models that rate well too.

I thought the Calypso was a "dud" and that is why it was discontinued.

I believe one reason my parents pushed college is because they worked in health care and most health care careers require college with the advanced science classes. I think there is a difference between people who work in health care and people who don't regarding things that are hazardous...

Oh I think the adults said the same thing about us when WE were teenagers back in the 70s. As for Maytag, they probably should not have bought Magic Chef and should have been like a Speed Queen and just made washers and dryers.
