On May 7th I will be meeting RET. LTC Hal Moore. With our reunion coming in July I will see if he will be in the Colorado area at that time maybe he can attend our luncheon? ( no promises))). I'm sure he has a full schedule, but I will ask.

I'm looking for our MEDIC Larry Miller who served with C/2n 17th 67/68 if anyone is in contact with him please ask him to contact me at the above phone number or give me his number

Thanks

SEE YOU ALL AT THE REUNION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

To Members I know I demoted LT GEN. Hal Moore. If anyone was offended I apologize, but maybe that's what he gets for not giving the 17th any play in the book and movie.

Just trying to come on as a member. I was with Battery C, 17th FA Bn. July 1949 - December 1951. Went to Korea as 1st Sgt of the Battery and was Battery Commander of the Battery when I left in Dec 51. I had turned the Battery over to Capt. Paul Blew and had gone to the Commonwealth Div as liaison awaiting my orders home when after several days got a call that Capt. Blew had crossed the line and had been either captured or killed. I was ordered to return ro the Battery and resume command until a new replacement could be obtained, which I did. This took about another 2 weeks. I don't remember the name of the Capt. who came in to take my place. I very well remember Kunu-Ri and many of those mentioned in the article.

Norm........Thank you for sending the membership application to me. It got here today and has been filled out and sent with check for life membership. I was pleasantly surprised to see that I had already been included on the membership roster. I would say thats efficiency plus which tells me a great deal about the folks in the assn. I certainly look forward to being associated with you all and appreciate you very much. This morning I called Charlie Rom who was our Detail Section Chief and lives here in Lawton. I'm working on him to get him to join. I have had emails from some of the members already so I can see some interesting things developing. Best Regards, L. B.
