This just popped up on my suggested videos. Mr. Bucky sure was a handsome man. I loved hearing him tell about his young days in he army. R.I.P Mr. Bucky with your sweet Valentine Miss Phyliss.
So loved seeing you two again and listening to your Army stories Mr Bucky!!!! Well, fast forward you both are now in a better place...you have departed from Earth and low and behold your Steven is entertaining us with his cooking and Bible verses on Sundays. We all just adore him. You would be so proud of him and your grandchildren as they are helping too. I have and continue to miss you so much as many people do. I hope somehow you realize just how much you have affected our lives. RIP and I hope to meet you both someday. Love, Jeanine 😇😇
I cant believe im just finding this video now!! Mr. Bucky always reminded me of my grandpa so getting to hear his stories from his time in the Army was such a treat! And Miss Phyllis always reminded me of my grandma and i love how she asked some of the questions i would've asked Mr. Bucky. I just learned yesterday that Miss Phyllis passed in January and while it hurt my heart to hear, it also made me happy that her and Mr. Bucky were together again with Renee and Jesus. God bless them and thank you for keeping this channel going! I just made your loaded baked potato soup the other day and it was deeeeelish!!!
Deb from Idaho My second husband graduated from high school in 1956, the year I was born!! He passed away in 1995. He was born in Roswell, New Mexico and was an Internal Revenue Agent, where I met him. I was 30 when we married. He was almost 50. Love of my life
I honestly really enjoy Mr. Bucky's stories. It takes me back to when I was w/my grandparents, in a tiny tiny Town, Humboldt Nebraska. Point being, I was born &raised in Detroit,Mich, Great big differences between the two. I never felt so safe, warm& ❤loved in my life. Thank you so much for taking me back. God love & bless you both.🙏
Mr. Bucky thank you for sharing the stories of your life during the military. Can't imagine how how that was for such young boys with little world experiences. They bend and shape you into what they want you to become. I am so amazed on how sharp you are and all the details you remember. I have so enjoyed this story. You are such a kind gentle soul. So happy I found you and Phyllis.
Drafted 10, DEC 68 Vietnam 69-70 Americal/23Infantry Div. How you remember so much about basic is beyond me. I remember the guys in my gun crew while in Vietnam but very little else. Course I drank enough borbon to float a battleship in the years after I come home and twice as much beer. Might have wiped out some memory cells. I had only been married about 8 months when I got drafted and my first son was just 20 days old when I left for Nam. Can't say that I enjoyed my military time.
Ms Phyllis Pls ask Mr Bucky to tell us MORE PLS about being in the Army, Pls. I miss my Daddy telling us Girls about the Marines, its strange the things you enjoyed hearing your Daddy talk about until he's not here anymore, Thank You Mr Bucky, its so nice to hear your stories. God Bless You and Your Wife and Family, and Merry Christmas you Guys :)
I so enjoy your stories and the website, the wonderful recipes and relaxed delivery of the videos. It's my 'comfort zone'. Wishing you continued success!
Thanks so much for sharing your stories I could really listen for hours, thanks for your time Mr. Bucky and thank you for the bribe Phyllis, blessings!
Really enjoyed Mr. Bucky's army stories. Basic training back in the day was brutal. I was thinking about the c-rations then compared to the mre's of today. So much has changed over the years but I just want to thank Mr. Bucky for his service, and for his interesting and often amusing narrative. God bless both of you.🙏❤🙏
Mr. Bucky, I enjoyed hearing your army stories. This is Memorial weekend, and a time to remember the men and women who protect our country,and gave their very life.. Thank you for serving our country, the beautiful USA. Carroll Robinson has a beautiful song called I LOVE AMERICA. This is a great country. Thank God we're free in all the right ways. I would love to hear more stories of your life. You and Ms. Phyllis have a lovely family. You are blessed. Rachel
Awwww, Thanks, Mr. Bucky! I love hearing your stories! They just make me wish some of those days would come back! I'm glad you have such great memories of the fun and comraderie with your friends. Ms. Phyllis, Mr. Bucky is so positive and so encouraging. He's such a nice guy! You all are a great couple! God Bless You Both! I'm headed over to listen to the other story I didn't finish. Got my blanket and my tea!
Hello Ms. Phyllis and Mr. Bukey. Again super storys. I enjoyed them so much. As I cannot go out of the House anymore I am so happy to have found your channel its like you both were my Family I feel so at home when listening to you both. Thank you soooo much! GOD BLESS YOU BOTH AND YOUR FAMILY. Greetings from Hamburg, Germany!
Back then, I remember 5 AND 10 cent cokes. Regular was a nickle, large were 10 cents. If you bought a Pepsi they brought it in a bottle, with a glass of ice, for a dime. It filled your glass two times, or you could share it. A hamburger was 25 or 30 cents, fries, a dime (those fries were served on a steak platter, and they were mounded up. About the equivalent of 4 family fries, maybe more. A grilled cheese was 30 cents, the Blue Plate Special, 60 cents or maybe (at a high-end place) 99 cents. A cotton school dress at JC Penney was $3.99 ir $4,99 on sale, or maybe as much as $6.99 if it was the prettiest thing you ever saw! A Jantzen bathing suit at Rutherford's was $4.99. School shoes were $4.99. Saddle oxfords $5.99, but you could not wear them out. A (very good) winter coat was $29.00 in 1956. Levi 501 jeans cost $3.65 in 1960. A carton of cigarettes cost $2.50 in 1960. A new car cost about $3000. in 1960 (with lots of chrome!) My first babysitting job paid 25 cents an hour. For seven kids. After that experience I charged 35 cents an hour. I eventually got up to 50 cents an hour. My first full time job, in 1960, paid $1.00 an hour.
Absolutely love hearing Mr Bucky's stories. They're funny too. Sorry our own people could be so abusive to young men. I guess if you could live through that training, you could live through anything. We love you, and sharing your experiences with us.
I LOVE YOU PHYLLIS; IAM SO SORRY FOR YOUR LOST ; I LOST MY HUSBAND IN 98 AND HE WAS IN NAVY FOR 30 YEARS I LOST MY 34 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER SHE WAS SHOT TO DEATH. AND 2 OTHER KIDS MY HEART LOVES YOU AS A FRIEND AND I PRAY FOR YOU ALWAYS
Wow! Just think what those young boys went threw physically, not to mention mentally. Later in the training the propaganda eventually became clear to certain individuals inducted in teenage years into the military reserves. Thank you Mr. Bucky!
The way they broke you down to build you the way they wanted you. Enjoyed the story, well told. I wish my Dad could have, would have told his story, being in WWII in the Pacific, never said a word, unfortunately. But, I was raised like I was in the military, shoulders back, stomach in, chin up, misery for 20 years! And, my father always gobbled his meals, after Mr. Bukey's military's story I can see why. Telling a good story is a talent few people have. Do you have a picture of Mr Bukey and his friends in the military.
Another great story. Would love to hear about how you met and when you decided to marry. Was it love at first sight? You make a beautiful couple.Wishng you and your family a very happy new year. God bless.
You know, knowing how the Army really was back then...it is amazing to hear the kids that go into it now and complain so much and even somehow manage to get out of it...I have a niece that joined the Marines...she wound up quitting that in basic, supposedly because she had something going on with her back and then her brother later joined the Army and he just couldn't take it wound up getting out I think during basic...can you see that happening back then...no way, they would have had you peeling potatoes and marching all night long if you even tried to complain about something...there was no getting out back then. My late husband served in the Army and in Viet Nam...he wound up with cancer from Agent Orange, but managed to get in almost 20 years before they had to retire him, with his second bout of cancer...he didn't want to get out though...he loved the service and I enjoyed everything about it too, even though I was just his wife. He wound up passing away with his 3rd bout with cancer though, from that Agent Orange...he passed away in December of 1994. If half the kids today even went through part of what yall went through back then, it would be surprising, because "today's Army" is easy compared to what yall had to go through back in yall's time. Thanks yall, especially Mr. Bucky for his old Army story too!! Love yall...God Bless yall too. Yall's stories are the best...reminds me so much of my late hubby and me and some of the stuff we went through...the good ole days...
This just popped up on my suggested videos. Mr. Bucky sure was a handsome man. I loved hearing him tell about his young days in he army. R.I.P Mr. Bucky with your sweet Valentine Miss Phyliss.

I could not stop laughing at the Stokesernest part. 😂
Imagine trying to explain it to the officer who's totally clueless. Lol
Great stories Mr Bucky !!!
Stokesernest! 😂😂 too funny!
You 2 are so dang funny! (From Kentucky)
you look pretty good for being 75 years old
I never ever would've guessed that being his age.
Absolutely love hearing Mr Bucky's stories. They're funny too. Sorry our own people could be so abusive to young men. I guess if you could live through that training, you could live through anything. We love you, and sharing your experiences with us.
Real good Army stories . Prices of eating out was nice to hear about . To bad , money can't buy the things it use to .

Mr. Bucky says "Amen" to your comment. Thanks.
25:00 Oh my goodness! Miss Phyllis, I bet you were disgusted with that whole chisel business! LOL!! Ohhhh my goodness... lol
❤❤❤❤
Could you please tell us why you call him Mr. Bucky ?
It's a way of showing respect and affection in this part of the South. They call me Miss Phyllis and
Bucky they call Mr. Bucky.
oh, I see. Thank you Phyllis
@@PhyllisStokes
It there are reason why you call you're husband Mr. Bucky?
In the part of the South where we live it shows love and respect.
Phyllis - I enjoyed Buckys stories but it would have been lots better if you didn't interrupt him so much
He likes to have me prompt him and ask questions and yes interrupt him too.
Wish Miss Phyllis would stop butting in, She ruined the story.
