Re: Veteran's Day - DC
In Response To: Veteran's Day ()

Rosemary and I hooked up with Ron Carey yesterday in Arlington VA. We're in separate hotels, but we have the Cav HQ at the Hilton surrounded. Weather is crisp and clear, perfect for Veterans Day.

We all connected with Lumpy for a real nice ceremony at The Wall, noon today, then we hit the Korean War Memorial and then headed back to Arlington, late afternoon, for a comfortable seat and a refreshing beverage. We had a nice talk with Joe Galloway and Genl Moore on our way from the Wall to the car, then went back to the Cav suite at the Hilton, introduced Ron and Lumpy to some of the Cav characters. Nice talk with Bruce Crandall, two MOH winners in the same room, Joe Marm and Ed "Too Tall" Freeman. Also talked with Larry Gwin, Sam Fantino (Recorla's RTO), John Eade, Joel Sugdinis, Jon Walenius, many others. I'm still trying to hook up with Wil Parish, another old C$erve friend I've never met, but we've missed each other here in DC, so far.

The 40th Reunion dinner is tomorrow night at another hotel, and they expect about 1100 guests. Rosemary and I and Ron are going to join the A/2/7 (Gwin's Company) crowd at their tables for the dinner.

Powerful stuff. News at eleven. Photos follow in several days.
