 Only three more months until we muster in Oklahoma City for our 2003 annual reunion. Muley has all his ducks in a row and is ready to show that his fair city can be a grand host to all of us Marines, Ladies and guests for another gathering of "Stable Able One Seven." Let us show the people of his fair city that we can appreciate their great hospitality! Well, things are falling in shape. The agenda is in place and all of the details are just about set! I just completed a deal for us to visit an " "Indian Casino" just west of the "City." They have the regular Casino games and "Big Time BINGO." They have a "Snack Bar" and serve some meals. It is a nice Casino. They are going furnish the transportation and all we need to do is go! So tell us, when you send in your Registration Form.
