Anita and Ii would like to thank everyone who worked so hard to make this years reunion such a wonderful and meaningful sucess,and everyone who was able to attend. It's amazing to see how we have grown from the first year.This year was especialy meaningful to Anita and I after missing last year because of major health problems. My detemination to attend this year helped in my recovery,along the thoughts and prayers,cards and phone calls from my brothers in the 589th. Thank you and thank God. Tommy

Thanks to all the people who made the 2012 reunion a success. It just keeps getting better every year.

Thanks Dennis and all of you that attended this years reunion. What a GREAT bunch of guys and gals. Every year is more special than the last and this year was no exception. We are truly a family. Oh yes we have our warts (C Co) but we love em just the same. What great fun! I can't wait until next year.

Bobby Patterson - I sent you an email on how to find out more about your Dad's 589th Buddies from Vietnam. We graciously accept and appreciate your kind words of praise to those that served our country in Vietnam. Thank You.

It was another great reunion! Perry and the guys and gals did another great job! For those of us that were lucky enough to attend this year it was very special with all the new faces that were there this year. We also had quite a few family members again this year and I think they enjoyed seeing all the love between all our Brothers. As we go forward everyone needs to know that this is the last year we will have Perry as President and John as Vice President. Perry and other A Company guys started this and now it will be up to us all to keep it going. It is time to start realizing that a few cannot do it all especially as none of us are getting any younger. Think of how you may want to help; be an officer, serve on a committee or help at the reunion with something. Like the guys that did the Memorial Service, who did a great job, and they agreed to do so at the reunion as they knew help was needed. It might be a year away but the time to start thinking how you can help is now. I was able to see how much work Perry and the guys and gals do and they do not have a lot of free time. If you did not thank them at the reunion thank them here. Again I send my thanks that Perry and crew started this and I have been able to see so many of my Nam buds and meet and make so many new friends. Hope to see even more next year!
