[Leica] Erwin Puts farewell to Leica World

[Mark Rabiner]

I recall reading over the years that starting in the early 50's  Leica's could could get at the PX; the military on Base store. Not sure about Retinas though. Nikons though.

    Hi Philippe,
    
    As a young USAF Lieut. in 1952, badly bitten by the photography bug, I 
    debated for weeks whether to buy a new Retina IIa or a used, but 
    recently serviced Leica IIIa.  The Leica won out, and served me well 
    until my eyesight changed and the LTM rangefinder/viewfinder combo 
    became a challenge.  The Retina series was a very nice product.
