Hello,
Please let us know if you are able to hear or view the
audios or videos by Dick Seitz and Eric Anderson.. Most should be able to hear
the audios. You may be able to get them on Internet Explore. Give the videos
time to download.
I've just read "Soldat" by Siegfried Knoppe, It offers
a unique inside look at the German side of World War 11. The training and
the echelon of command was not unlike ours. Officers, especially ninety day
wonders, should enjoy this book. Siegfried Knoppe was living in Ohio when he
wrote this book..

Ben, Today I received a call from Beatrice Stanchina, Larry's widow. She
asked to be put on the Thunderbolt mailing list. I double checked and found that
Larry wasn't on the roster. Her address is:4650 McKinley Rd.
Mio,
Mi 48647
I guess quite a few have received the 3rd.Qtr.Thunderbolt, but not I. I am
getting the 4th.Quarter ready, to be out in December. This 3rd.Qtr.issue was a
month late. Don't ask me why, I don't understand why Larry Stanchina wasn't on
the mailing list. Bob

Does anyone who served in the 517th have any names or addresses of family
members for Richard Henry? My Mom told me last night that she thought
Richard had written a few things about being assigned to Lt. Floyd Stott.
If I could reach one of Richard's family members maybe they would still have
some of those documents. My Mom thought Richard was an only child so it
will possibly have to be the family of an aunt or uncle. Thank you, on
behalf of Floyd's sister, Darleen (Stott) Beardsley, for any help. Kenton

time.
Thanks for letting us know about Bob Christi's treatments. We must be
in prayer for him. Thanks for all you do to keep us informed and
"together". June

Bill,
Hey Bill.
Happy to hear from you and to know you will go ahead on the Palm Springs gathering. I know you were concerned about possible conflict between the Savannah (August05), Florida (January06), and the national forthcoming Portland (July06) reunion-all occurring over a relatively short period. Your event has always been well attended. The Palm Springs diehards and locals will certainly be there-including the Frice clan.
I would recommend you send the dates to Ben again and for repeated publishing in his email program.
