You're kidding, right? I spent much of my young life in bars - along with many other little kids. And, even now, there are NO Federal laws in the USA that prohibit minors from drinking. Many laws prohibit SELLING it to kids, though. There are approx. 14-15 states in the USA that have their own laws to ban minors from drinking outright. That leaves many states that do NOT prohibit it. There are countless indirect laws, though.
In New York, school teachers can even serve alchohol to kids - IF they have parental permission, and it's proven to be for "educational" purposes. I doubt anybody dare try it though. Same goes when done for "regligous" purposes, family get-toge thers, etc.
MY dad had a country-western band and I got dragged to many bar-rooms, dances, drunken parties, etc., even when I could barely talk and walk. In 1959, I even helped out setting up a Black-face Minstrel show my dad ran (one time event in our town). By the way, there was nothing negatively racist about the way it was done.
In the 50s and 60s, taking a kid to the bar-room was no big deal. Probably still isn't in some rural places. To be technical, it's not even illegal in the USA for a little kid to drink booze. But it IS illegal to sell it to him/her.

I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
