| Comment: | Received the following from Patty Carrier. Here is the hotel information for our reunion in Gettysburg, Pa August 29-Sept 1, 2024 Block ID: 297239 Block Code: 082924AHC Guests can call 717-339-0020 and select option 3 for guest services. They can reference either group name, block id, or block code to make a reservation 😊 I believe our contract states all rooms in the block are with king sized beds. We currently have a block for 45 rooms. Please make reservations as early as possible so I can add more if needed. (assuming more will be available. ) I will send “save the date” postcards out soon….probably after Christmas. The post office is a little swamped right now. 😉 Rooms will be $134 per night + tax. Looking forward to seeing everyone!! | |

| Comment: | Got the following from Renee Lewis, wife of Clarence Lewis. Sending it out bulk email. I know some were not there at that time but sometimes stories and info gets passed around. If you can help them please contact them at: cclrel@yahoo.com Sam, could you please distribute this question/situation to the roster for Clarence Lewis (57th, Nov ‘71-Sep ‘72). There was a Cobra shot down near the Bien Het Firebase. The front seater was killed and the back seater, a Captain, was seen getting out of the aircraft but was not found by US personnel. I was tasked with interviewing all witnesses involved in this incident. I audio taped the conversations that I later transcribed & submitted to the Company Commander. Unfortunately these tapes were stolen out of my vehicle many years ago. This Captain was later returned in 1973, after being a POW, to Hawaii with other former POWs. I cannot recall his name and unfortunately was unable to greet these men being repatriated. I am hoping someone knows his name and could say whether he is still among us. Thank you, Warrant Officer Clarence Lewis | |

| Comment: | Received the following from Patty Carriere pattycarriere@me.com Just a quick correction: I was notified today that the code word for the hotel is “AHC”, not “Gladiator “. So when you make hotel reservations, please give the discount code as “AHC”. That is for the Hampton Inn in Enterprise, AL 334-347-5763 | |
