When I was a kid, on Saturday morning I watched Captain Midnight and Commando
Cody.
Cartoon Shows weren't thought of.
And YES, I sent in two Ovaltine labels to get a Secret Squadron Decoder so I
could learn what next week's show was going to be about.

Found out I didn't care for the taste of Ovaltine, Nestle's QUIK taste better.
Much better than Hershey's Cocoa.
I never could get the correct combination of cocoa, sugar and milk to suit my
taste buds.
