WELCOME HOME

Happy Veterans Day to all my Brothers in the 589th and to all Brothers everywhere! As you can see from the previous comments it has been a busy time since the Reunion for Perry. I know he has spent a lot of time working on the "New PX" page. It is now ready for Christmas Shopping or resupplying your needs. Also, Bob is working on next years Reunion Memorial Service for our Memorial Ceremony. There is a lot of work that goes on behind the scenes to keep the 589th running and working for you, our member Brothers. This is also an election year so we have that to work on also. Remember that only those attending the Reunion are eligible to vote for our Officers so if you want input in the election it is time to start making your plans to attend the 2015 Reunion. We are a great Organization and we have grown into one of the best around, just look at some other websites. I hope you can all attend this year! So again Happy Veteran's Day to you all and Welcome Home!

When I was a baby,
You would hold me in your arms.
I felt the love and tenderness,
Keeping me safe from harm.
I would look up into your eyes,
And all the love I would see.
How did I get so lucky,
You were the dad chosen for me.
There is something so special
About a fathers love.
Seems it was sent to me
From somewhere up above.
Our love is everlasting,
I just wanted you to know.
That your my special hero,
And I wanted to tell you so...

I love you daddy!!

Just when you think the 589th Website it can't get any better, it does. I have perused the new PX pages and am amazed by all Perry's work. I have to admit I don't understand the complexity of what goes on behind the scenes to make the site function, but I know it is very complex and takes lots and lots of time to create. I, for one, appreciate all the time and effort Perry has donated to make our Website what it is - the best military association website on the Internet. Thanks Brother.

I need your help. In preparation for the 589th Association's Memorial Service to be held during our 2015 Reunion, I would like to gather some personal information on those we lost in Vietnam. I would like to assemble this information for use during the "Reading of the Names" ceremony. I understand it has been a long time, but .......let's remember them in the manner each of us would like to be remembered. Their names can be found on the "Our Losses" link on the Home Page. Please e-mail me (bobs@centerforsolutions.org ) with any information you have on them - even short descriptions such as "friendly, or "dedicated", or "fun to be around" are helpful. Any information you have, regardless of how brief, will be used to build a profile of them as Brothers we can never forget. Thank you in advance for your help and consideration. Welcome home Brothers.

I am very pleased to inform you that our "New 589th PX" is finally ready for you to place your orders. It hasn't been easy but I believe it will be worth it in the long run. It should enable us to branch out a bit and offer a wider selection of items that we could not have done with the old PX format, not to mention making it much easier for our volunteers to process them.

Please be assured your information is secure on our PX and if you are unhappy with the merchandise or ordering process we will do everything we can to make it right. Our 589th Brothers are our #1 priority...period!

To show your support please place an order today or in the near future.

Need help ordering? Just email us. All of the officers email addresses can be found under "589th Staff" from the Menu bar. Just click on the "email" link.

Thanks again and I do hope you approve of it and will order often!

We are so looking forward to attending the Meet and Greet in Phoenix Az. Cirilo hasn't been well enough to go across country to attend the Branson reunion so we are excited to attend Phoenix. Cirilo has been now diagnosed with Parkinson's, so traveling is not easy on his body, he gets so exhausted at times but I KNOW this will perk him right up!!!
We are also bringing Joe Silva, Cirilo's cousin that help drive us out to Fort Leonard Wood in 2009. Also attending will be my Grandson Marc Wiseman and possibly his girl friend Stacey, Marc attends NAU in Flagstaff Az. so he will drive out there and spend 3 days with us, and last but not least are Jack and Julie Godinho, Cirilo's best friend/Vietnam buddy that was stationed out at Fort Lenard wood before Vietnam, I think he was with the 518th. Engr.
So we are really looking forward to it. See ya soon God willing The Silva's

Glad that Col don is better. He is a great person. After talking with him At the reunion in 2010, I know he was a great commander. So Col Don, here hoping you will be able to make next years reunion.
