  

Thanks to everybody that worked on the Homecoming. It was a great success, no thanks to the weatherman. Next year will be bigger and better. That's right I said next year. We decided at April 6th meeting to do it all again next year. The dates for 2009 are March 28th and 29th thanks to this year being leap year. IN THE FUTURE IT WILL BE HELD THE FOURTH SATURDAY IN MARCH. We thank all the Veterans that braved the weather. We especially thank the Chapter 203 Vietnam Veterans of America,Chattanooga, TN for all they contributed to our celebration. We thank them for bringing the mobile TN WALL. We would like to thank "Little Sis" (aka Monica Harvey). Ms. Harvey paid her own way from Stapelton NE to sit and console veterans at the wall. This is her 29th sitting when the wall is on display. She says a prayer and then gives the veterans a heart shaped hat pin with a band aid on it. A real great lady for sure. There are so many people we would like to thank we will just say THANKS TO ANYONE WHO WAS CONNECTED TO OUR CELEBRATION IN ANY WAY SHAPE OR FORM.
