I kept a plastic spoon and a toothbrush in my fatigue shirt pocket at all times. I found you could brush your teeth anywhere any time. Toothpaste is a luxury you don't really need every time if you brush often enough. I still do it. I have toothbrushes in my car, at my computer..

You're a man after my mom's heart, Jerry! She advocated using your finger if you had absolutely nothing else. Remember, the apple is called "Nature's toothbrush." And even city folks can probably find a twig and bash its end so it splays out into a brush.

To brush your teeth, right??? What did she recommend as a substitute for, um, bath tissue???

I honestly can't recall what we substituted...

But I'm pretty sure it wasn't a handful of gravel.
