Ray thanks  for the Christmas card from you and your wife, it generated an interest of my wife Sarah that she is totaled committed that I will make the next re-union which will be my first one and I am looking forward to it. Please send me copy of the re-union flyer. Please put my name down for the scheduled ride on the Huey.

I just found the new web site today, and have been on it for the entire day. I responded to one of the messages inquiring about CWO 2 Hasselman one of our pilots we lost.
