Attending 101st Luncheon - 11-15-2009
#8

Hi Gang:

 

Had a wonderful time yesterday and got to sit at the table with the Burgetts (Don, his wife Twyla, their daughter Renee and her husband Clark), Mark Bando and his wife, and my friend Carl Horoho (whom I met at Don's birthday party, a while ago). Had a great visit with not only them, but also got to speak to my buddies George Koskimaki and Donald Straith, also 101st Airborne. It had been TOO long.

 

I brought along my Epic of the 101st Airborne book, which Don had signed at his house, and obtained the following autographs:

 

George L Walker

Donald Straith

George Koskimaki

Fred Bahlau

Albert Leloneh

 

Thank you gentlemen. Always an honor and a pleasure.

 

They have a very impressive museum collection. Wow!

 

My camera is on the fritz, so Carl is going to send me photos. Will post as soon as I get them...
