Hi All:

It has been brought to my attention that there are a few people that are having trouble with registering for the St. Louis reunion. I have been in contact with Donna for the Armed Forces regarding this matter.

If anyone needs any help please contact me, Chris Lindner at ctennis@sbcglobal.net or by phone 210-478-1607

Donna from the Armed Forces said that the registrations are coming in very slow.

THE REUNION IS IN 1 AND 1/2 MONTHS AWAY AND I HOPE EVERYONE THAT IS PLANNING TO ATTEND WILL SEND IN THERE REGISTRATION AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.

It is going to be a fun reunion and we need as many people as possible to make it a great reunion.

THANK YOU !!!!!

Chris Lindner

The Wife & I have moved to Cedar Park, TX. Left Oklahoma and our Friends. But we are close to my daugher, Kristie & her family of husband & 5 children. Will not make the St. Louise reunion, but planning on the Kissdimmee, FL reunion in January, 2009.

We are living in a place known as "The Ranch", which is a senior independent living apartments.. Hope all you 517thers are doing good. I hate to read the mail calls because of those who have passed away. But we are doing fine.

Ben,

Attached is a list of the men that have passed, and will be recognized at the reunion. I believe some have passed several years ago, and would not fit the criteria for recognition. If the family or friends would send the following, I would appreciate it. The date of birth, date of death, the home town, unit, company etc. also a picture in uniform, and one near the time of death. address, Send to my address, garandaddy@comcast.net. Thanks very much, Morris McDowell
