REUNION TIME IS HERE! At one time,
it seemed like 2004 was a long way off but the time for
the 2004 Reunuion is coming fast. Clinging to the old
adage, 'If it ain't broke...', the schedule of events
will be similar to other years. DOOR PRIZES Each person attending is asked to bring a door prize. It would be nice if it were something from your current home state, but be sure to keep the price $10 or under. THE EVENTS Friday evening, July 16, 6:00 om. Meet at
Miller's Restaurant at 427 Main Street in Bangor. We will
have our own room and each person orders from the menu,

appetizer and drinks. The restaurant will provide cheese
and crackers at no charge. Saturday Afternoon, Julky 17. The Maine Air Museum will be open 10 am through 4:00 pm. Come and see the growing collection of military and civil aviation memorabilia.

I truly enjoy the
newsletter and look forward to it. Ron (Mike) Cabell Sorry it has taken so
long to send you some more money. As usual we were happy
to receive the newsletter. Also, so we can send a note to
Robert Hinton, as he was there when we were. And remember
how Lila loved to dance at the Squad parties even at 9
months pregnant. Arlene VanZandt Joe and I were
excited to see William Mahoney's address
and email address in the last letter we got. We
called him up and also his ex-wife Joan. She and I kept
each other company when our husbands were sent on
isolated tours. Bill was in Alaska and Joe was in
Vietnam. We went antiquing together and in the fall she
dragged me on a gleaning trip to the potato fields. We
got enough for our winter supply. I was emailing Bill but
my computer is on the blink so I am going to write him.
He keeps us laughing with his funny little jokes. Sincerely, Just a few lines to
let you know I received the latest newsletter and was
glad for the news. Larry Whitten --------------------------- Sorry to have taken
so long to contribute again. Ed & Bev Lane I am enclosing $$ for any expenses incurred in keeping this group going. I am looking forward to attending the reunion this year. I hope there are some attendees from my era ('57-'61). I have sent some pictures to Dick Cynewski for the gallery and will send more when I get them sorted out. Best regards Sending a donation to help defray expenses. I don't know when I last sent anything but I hope this keeps me in the club. If not, let me know. Still hoping to make it for the reunion in July. Joe Nataro Just returned to
Indiana after spending the winter in Florida and thought
I should get a check in the mail for the reunion fund and
the newsletter. Jane & Dick Loveall ---------------------------
