Hello,
 
It is only five weeks before the Kissimmee reunion. The sooner you register, the less problems Bob Christie will have . Many have indicated that they will be there but have not registerd as of December 10.

I am the son of Bud Curtis, HHC, 1st Bn,  and a High School Vice Principal.  I served in Hawaii with the 25th Division and feel it is important to keep students aware of that awful day.  Every year I meet with all of the 10th grade students in our school during this week (they are learning about World Geography), and  I explain to them about the attack on Pearl Harbor.  I am meeting with them tomorrow, Dec 10, 2003.  Since John Alicki was there it would be wonderful to be able to tell these students sometime about the attack that John remembers.  Or any other type of message he might like me to relay to these students.  His input for my presentation would be most appreciative. 

Thanks

Lory Curtis

John S.D.Eisenhower, Ike's son, was involved in WW II. Could someone tell me in what unit and what was his rank. I know his books but he never talk about himself in his books. He must have been born on 1922
Thank you for your help

Thanks Ben, I am teaching the kids right now.  I will at least let them know about John and his service to our country.  I would love to go to the reunion in Kissimmee with my Dad.  What big town in Florida would be the closest to fly into?  I’ll ask Dad if he can go. 

You know this Capt. Terry from Fort Benning is coming to gather information about the 517th for his company.  He is really going to honor all of you from the 517th.  I am very proud.
