Greetings,
2009 Reunion - The Reunion is only a 1 1/2 months away. Currently there is a list on the
MSN website of those planning to attend. I know the list is not up to date. There are many
members planning to attend and I am not aware of them. If you are planning to attend and
have sent you Registration Form in please let me know. My email address is
gunnermadmur@neo.rr.com . If you planning to attend and have not sent in the 2009
Registration Form please do soon. If you do not have a 2009 Registration you can right click
with the mouse on the 2009 Registration Form below and print it.
The 2009 Reuion information can be viewed on our websites:
MSN - 15th Med Association
Main Website - 15th Med Association
2009 Reunion Agenda - Most of the time the Agenda is flexible. There is a lot for everyone
to see at Myrtle Beach. I don't know if we have any golfers, but I do know that there are plenty
of golf course to chose from. If is usually customary that we meet in the hospitaly room in the
early evening. Friday night is usually a plannig dinner event that most of the members will join.
Saturday morning we have our Annual Meeting at 10:00 am. Saturday evening we have our
Dinner Banquet. Usually starts about 6pm with a get together then dinner at 7pm. After the
dinner we open to many things. One of the big events that we have been doing for the last
few years is an Auction of items brought in by our members. Richard "Tiny" Mellon is our
Auctioneer. I hope he makes it this year.
Support our Country - You have seen all the signs and flags about Support our Troops. I
believe we need to help ourselves and our Country (USA). We need to start buying more
American. I know that is had to do when you see so many items made in other countries. One
just needs to look at the labels. There are so many small every day items we use that are
made in other countries that may cost more than items produce in the USA. I get some email
about which ones are less in price than foreign made products. It is just my opinion here and I
think if we take the time we can buy more products made in the USA. We are in hard times
and if each of us does just a little it can have an effect.
Well, I wish I had more news for you. Working with these documents can be time consuming.
Organizing them is hard. 1969 will be the hardest to work with. I thought 1968 was rough. It
does appear that many documents never made it to the archives. Paul Troop will give us a
more insight of his finds at the archice in DC. I just try to put it together and I am astounded
that so much is missing or should I there are so many gaps.
