Beth meets Myron at the first Community Drug Store in Arlington, VA

As the story goes, Beth goes into the Community Drug Store in Arlington and Myron was the “Soda Jerk” serving milkshakes. Beth had painted her fingernails each a different color and Myron was not approving. So, Bethh went home and repainted them all the same color and went back to the store. This was how they remember meeting for the first time. If calculations are correct, in 1942 Beth would been 15 and Myron 17.
