SEPTEMBER 2003 8TH ANNUAL REUNION- OKLAHOMA CITY, OK




NOW HERE THIS, NOW HERE THIS!

The rooms are waiting; the welcoming and banquet menus are set! The buses, for the tours, are ready to roll. The casinos trips will schedule when we know "how many." The speakers have accepted their part, and the color guards will be here in all their brilliant colors, and the Hospitality Room is stocked. All we need is you! So come on down to the "City" and spend a week with us! Betty and I are checking in on the 30 Sept. and we will be here to greet ya!

The only thing I haven't set up in a golf game. We have many good courses around the "City", but I don't know how many want to play. If the players would let me know, I'll set something up.

I have calls from Warriors of other
companies (B, C & Weapons,) that said they were attached to "A" Co at one time. I said they were welcome, so you guys help me to make them feel part of our annual reunion!

Don't forget to bring your items for the drawings. We have some great items, so far. I have a signed, by the Artist, copy of the Paint Horse, Standard, that will be in the drawing. I'm trying to get the Artist to show at the Welcoming Party. Everything left over, from the reunion, will be placed in the Drawing! So show up and bring'um! You will have a good time!

Ya'll stay warm, Muley

Received an E-Mail from Charles Mc Kellar Web Master 1stBn 7thMarines.

"Subject: Guy Taylor's pictures

Hi Shifty, the pictures arrived today; hope to get to them some time next week. Now if you could have a little luck in getting the guys to jot down something for the "We Remember" page would be great.

Sitting around the hospitality room, at the Battalion Reunion at Hilton
Head Island in April, or near groups of guys talking you hear all kinds of stories but getting anyone to send one in for the page is like pulling teeth. Do not care about spelling, grammar or punctuation; we can take care of that. Then send it back for a final review before posting. Can be posted under the guys name or anomalously.

Any help you can give in this regard would be appreciated.

Mac

Okay troops Mac has requested our assistance let us not let him down! Many people access the Battalion's Web Page and it would be great if they could read our stories!

Semper Fi! "Shifty".
