This is Bill Giles 69-70 wishing everyone a Happy New Year
Received an email regarding your VA id card. It has been discovered that if you scan the bar code on the VA Id card it will reveal your social security number. The VA is investigating and plans on maybe issuing new cards sometime in 2014. So what ever you do be careful who scans your VA card.
Brothers, it was deep sorry that I must report that Bruce Babish has passed away. Bruce has been in poor health for several years. He attended our last reunion in Lenexa and was looking forward to our next reunion in 2015. Our condolences to Susan and the rest of Bruce's family. Rest in peace brother, you will be missed. Bruce passed away November 16th of an apparent stroke. He was cremated and the family will be accepting friends at 4:00pm with a memorial servie to follow at 6:00pm on December 7th. The service will be held at the Wallace Memorial Baptist Church, 701 Merchant Drive, Knoxville, TN 37912. Instead of flowers, you can make a donation to the church or the Wounded Warriors.
