Forty five (45) guys were signed in!!! One of our largest gatherings. Boy, were the tales a flyin. Good time had by all. Our Vice President from USMRA, Ranger Windy,was present for duty. I think he and I looked like the youngest guys there!!! LOL!. It was amazing to see those, formerly, 18 year old kids, with full, gray beards, bald heads, and a few extra pounds! They were all mostly 18 or 19 when I was their Platoon Sergeant at Thirty. Happy "Fourth" to all. Stay cool and dry. Jim RLTW/L&P :) |

Posted: 06/10/2018 Name: Bob Williams - Secretary Message: Between June 1st and 6th, several of our members had the honor of supporting the Blind Veterans Assoc. and Blind Endeavors on a 74 mile hike of the Appalachian Trail culminating in a rappel down the 60ft cliff at Camp Merrill. The 74 miles was a recognition of the 74th anniversary of the D-Day invasion on June 6, 1944. The event was the result of a year of planning and preparation by Joe Amerling, Mike Ramsey and many others. The group of 8 American and British blind hikers is already talking about next year's event. Check out he websites above and look for blind veteran's activities in your area. Get involved: it will change you life. Details and photos can be viewed on the Blind AT Facebook page. |
