This doesn't quite relate but when Norfolk Va. started complaining to the Navy about unruly sailors in their town.... Norfolk residents had signs out like "dogs and sailors, keep of the grass" etc. They were also claiming that since the military had the Exchange and Commissary sailors were spending almost all of their money on base. So in order to make a point the Navy paid a good portion of sailors with 2 dollar bills...... To say the least, Norfolk was flooded with 2 dollar bills and the towns people shut their gob holes.....
