The American flag does not fly because the wind moves past it. The American flag flies from the last breath of each military member who has died protecting it. American soldiers don't fight because they hate what's in front of them...they fight because they love what's behind them. Bless all that have served and that continue to serve...Come home safe! Welcome home to all of you and Happy 4th of July!!!!!!!!!!!!

hope all my (Mountain movers) brothers have a great 4th and hope to see everyone at reunion. Especially C Co. Bro. Hey Nick give me a call are your fingers in concrete.

To all of my MOUNTIAN MOVER BROTHERS out there . Have a great and safe 4th of July weekend.

The reservation people in Branson informed me that the Branson airport (abbreviation BKG) is 15 minutes away from the hotel, and the Springfield airport is about 45 minutes away. There is a shuttle from both airports which can be reserved through the 1-800-268-4014 reunion reservation desk. There is a charge for the shuttle, but the good news is it appears we may not need to have rental cars. Perhaps Perry can clarify whether we will need rental cars at Branson for any reason.

Farecompare compares rates between discounters such as orbitz, expedia, priceline, and others. As an example, I'm looking at rates of about $450 round trip from San Francisco Bay to Missouri this year. Hopefully as many who can come will come. But the important thing is we have made contact, and this Guestbook system is Great for staying in touch.

If there is anyone out there that remembers my brother, Terry Lee Northcross. He was in 18th (Brigade?) Company D, 2969-1970/ He passed away In 1999. Just his family and fiends told him, "Welcome home, soldier" and thanked him. I would like to say Thank you to all who served with him and say Welcome home soldier, you served your country and deserve more than we can ever repay.

Weve, Liked your message. Sure it cost money to go to the reunion. but its worth every penny of it. It makes you feel great to see you served with that you have not seen in over 49 years. BROTHER that is what its all about. Once you go to one you will never miss another one.Last year was the most fun my wife and I have had in a long time. Will see you there in sept. Willie(Bill)

I know that the cost of the reunion is what is on everyone,s mind. The cost is the one factor that is keeping anyone of you from not comming then you should look at the time frame that we are living in because some of us have not seen each other for over forty years and it would be a great healing time for all. If I could do it I would pay for everyone as I believe that it is very important now for us to see each other as none of are getting any younger so if at all possible please try and makeyour way to the reunion. the weve

looking forward to seeing all of you ant the reunion in September

sorry carp, you can't use the airport security for an excuse for not coming to the reunion. i worked for the t.s.a. for a while and i know that all passenger screening are done by male to male or female to female. hope to see you at brenson. luigi
