Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all my Brothers!

The vaccine sounds like it has a great chance to be effective! That is good news and hopefully we can all get together in September in Branson! Sure hope to see you there!

Hi Dennie. Just saw your post from a couple of weeks ago about FOLD 3. I ran across it years ago researching my family Military history through Ancestry. I found my Dad's medical records from when he was wounded in WWII. Also my Great Great Grand Dad Civil war records. Found his grave not 15 minutes away in old cemetery with veterans tombstone. It is fascinating. I'm sure it can be very useful. Thanks for mentioning it.

50 years ago today Nov. 29,I got back to the states from Company B 589th L.Z. Last Chance- Paradise Lost with a great bunch of guys.NOT WELCOMED-only to be called a baby killer etc.People talk before they know the facts or don’t care.I think with all the things going on this year in the U.S. ITS GREAT WE HAVE A GREAT MILITARY WE CAN COUNT ON. BE SAFE STAY HEALTHY N GOD BLESSYOU ALL

Thomas you have that right ! Hard to grasp that each generation have thought the same thing if they are blessed to have seen our age !

Roger If you or anyone else can figure out where the last 50 plus years went please let me know.I am thankful to have had them but they passed to quickly

Congrads, John. Charlotte and I now have two both boys . Oldest two years and his brother two months !

Anita and I are especialy thankfull for our 1st Great Grand Son ,John Thomas Mclain ,born 11-2 2020

Thankful for all we have received and for the health we have , could be worse, and family and friends. Thanks Nick hope to see you all in 2021.

Note to families who have had loved ones depart this year you have our prayers and love !

As we get ready to celebrate Thanksgiving this year it may different than any other year.

Some of us will not be able to travel or have the usual big dinners which will be a big change for us.

One that will not change is that we have men and women serving in our military. So as you give thanks this year be sure to remember them all in your blessings.!

I hope all of you are well as possible with our age group and you all are safe from this horrible COVID19.

Hope to see you in September which looks more likely now that there is a vaccine on the way!

Love you all and Happy Thanksgiving!

Guys, In case any of you enjoy Military History, I found sometime ago a very informative site. FOLD3 is the name. Not sure how to link it but you can google it. They offer a full benefits package for a charge but you can also look and find info at no cost. For example, I found My Father's draft registration card from the early 1940's. Just had a note from them announcing posting of information about Native Americans in the military. I found information about ancestors in the Civil War and WWI. You get the picture.
Anyway, if that sort of thing interests you at all, take a look. Send me a note if you have any questions about it.

Belated best wishes for all my brothers on Veterans Day.
Just saw the note that Jim Clower passed. One of the good guys whom I always enjoyed talking to on the phone. May he Rest in Peace.

Stay safe and well.
