Willie Bonney,

Thanks for your post. Your questions definitely deserve a response. The Guestbook only allows 750 characters in a post, so I will respond to your questions in an e-mail to all 589th members. We are limited to the number of emails we can send out per day, so I will begin sending them this afternoon, understanding that it may take a day or two for all of them to go out. Thanks for sharing what is on your mind. Welcome home Brother.

I will have to admit that attending the 589th Reunion is like going to the doctor for my annual check-up. Nobody wants bad news and I am as guilty as the next guy about doing everything possible to avoid it. But I have always gotten good news at the Reunions. The good news I return home with is, "Bob, you and your problems are not so unique after all. All of you are going to be fine." I come home thankful that the 589th Engineer Association is my Band of Brothers. I return knowing I am a better person for each conversation I was able to share. And most important, I return home thankful that while we met as kids, we have been given an opportunity to know each other as adults also. That is pretty cool! Welcome home Brothers.

Hope everyone made it home from the Reunion OK. We got back mid afternoon on Monday.
Thanks to all those who made the trip to Branson and helped make it a great reunion. I enjoyed meeting the first timers and hope they all had an enjoyable time.
Welcome Home Brothers

Made it home, but we are real tired. I enjoyed most of the reunion, but there a few things Im just don't under stand. why was there a secret meeting behind closed doors to choose who was going to be on the board. Why didn't we all get to help do this. Another damn thing, the 50 year reunion should be held at Fort Hood Texas. Oh yes the 50 year is in 2016, because that is when the unit began. We went to Vietnam in 67. You want more people to attend the reunion, then move it from Branson Mo. People are tired of having it there. MOVE IT. I know I have piss some people off whom cares. If any one else agrees with me E-Mail me. Oh yes Charles Begley you knew this was going to happen, because were in on it.

Here is the 10 day forecast for those of you staying over in Branson.

Hope to see you all there!

To Billy Clayborn's family - I hope you are planning on attending the reunion. At least two people who knew Billy will be at the reunion - including the person who was wounded with him.

With Nick's predictions of "showers and thunderstorms," guess we will have to stay indoors and drink health drinks while philosophizing on life's mysteries. :toast:
