Robert Melendez and I will be there. I just chatted with him a little while ago and I will be flying to Austin to meet up with him. We will drive from there to Phenix City. I will update later as we firm up our plans but would like to maybe caravan with others that might be on our route. This will also be a kind of commemorative trip also as we drove to Benning for our last Army assignment 40 years ago. I left from Portland, OR, picked him up in San Jose, CA and made our way to Columbus. It was quite an adventure back then.

BTW, 40 years???????? How did we get this old this fast?
Robert and I will still be showing up but in the end we had to bag the driving idea. Unfortunately our schedules would not mesh well enough to make it work .
Hey George, as it stands right now Toby Milroy and I will be there. We intend to be there on Tuesday and will have to leave Friday night for a commitment in Indiana on Sunday. See you all soon!!!
Well, I'm still going to be there but it was nip and tuck for a while. I came as close to winning the lottery as I ever will. An all expense paid (nearly) 6 night/7 day stay at the Kaiser Hilton, Sunnyside due to a Staph infection in my leg. IV antibiotics twice a day. Was in ER twice and admitted the second time. Got out Thursday and am still on oral antibiotics until I get back home. Had an appointment with the Doc today and said he was OK with me going to the reunion. My arms look like I'm a drug addict I got stuck so many times. Did I ever mention how much I hate needles???? I told them too, but those blood sucking vultures showed up every morning @ 4 AM to drain some more. At least I'm on the mend and on to Ft. Benning!
