Brad, Art's son, helped to organize the reunion.
We had one special guest, Tony Koorlander, formerly with BBC, lives in Bideford, England near our traning area of Saunton Sands. He has been in touch with Wes Ross, Lamar Keith, Lenny Fox and Brad Hill. He brought a wealth of film from our training area as well as invasion film. A wonderful addition to the reunion and showed it at the Museum Legion of Merit.
The reunion was small but a great one on one conversation at the Best Western Hotel, who's Staff went all out for the group with good food and hospitality and good prices.
