That is great, I should be able to make it since I get out of school the week before.

Do the volunteers and reenactors need to call the reservation number that is posted in order to attend the dinner?

Also, it is the 12th- the 16th, but the dinner is on the 15th so what will be going on the 12th-15th? Basically what im asking is which days I should come up since I am on limited funds and cant make it up  the entire week.

I would like a head count.  The vets will be coming and going all week long.  Dinner is around 630 or 700.  I will let everyone know as the time firms up. 

Travis.  I need to talk to you.  I have an internship possiblility for you if you are interested.  Let me know and we can work out the details.

Rick - my wife and I will be at the gathering Friday.  I will be at the sub on Saturday as it's a work day in addition to the memorial service.

Travis - come on back...it's been too long.

It was good to see everyone again.  Sadly, there were only 6 WWII vets that I counted.   :'(

there were only 3 of the wwii guys.   We did see more of the 681 guys though.   As the reunion was 1 week later then in previous years more people had schedule conflicts.   I hope to see more of them next year.

I had a great time, got to meet all the WWII vets, and got their autographs in one of my books.
