Dear Ben:
Thanks to you we, meaning Billie (my wife) and I have already
made reservations at the Doubletree Hotel as recommended for June 27th-July 2,
2007. We surely hope nothing will interfere with our making that
trip. This will be the first reunion that I have known about and have been
able to plan for. I wish we had gotten in touch with the group before the
Oregon Reunion because living in Colorado part of the time I may have been able
to have made that reunion. I think I missed it by about a
week.
As a side note I was able to join the 82nd Airborne Division
Association, Inc. Rocky Mountain Chapter. Last Saturday evening we
attended our first dinner with that group in Denver. A very enjoyable
evening! It was disappointing to be the only member of the 517th
PRCT who was in attendance. I did get to meet and talk with several men
from the WWII 82nd Airborne that the 517th was attached to during the Battle of
the Bulge. We both agreed we had never been any colder than in the Battle
of the Bulge with the exception of Tennessee Maneuvers.
Best Regards,
Lucky Hiers and Billie

Hi All:
I know that Darrell expressed my sorrow to Howard for his loss in the
passing of Jan. I wanted to tell Howard that I am very sorry and I think
Jan was a wonderful person.

Hi Again:
I wanted to tell Bob Christie that I do not have any problems getting the
e-mails he sends to me but when I reply to Bob sometimes it will come back to me
from the "mail demon". I do not know why this happens sometimes.
I have been off line so long because they are re-doing our hardwood floor
and they disconnected my computer and I have no idea where it is (other
than it is in the dining room under some plastic).
I have been making several trips back to St. Louis because unfortunately my
Mom is having some health issues.
I will be back in San Antonio on Monday and I do not expect to get my
computer up and running for about two weeks. I have a terrible mess with
the sanding of the floors and needless to say a ton of cleaning to do when this
project is done.
I will all of you well and I will be in touch.
Have a good one.

Hi Ben:
I am not sure if my e-mails are going through to Bob Christie or not so I
wanted to say that I have not received a Thunderbolt.
I gave me new address to Tom Reber but I will also post it here for
Bob.
