New Found Members - We are still finding
members who plan to attend the 2014 Reunion. It brings us great joy to
welcome them to our Association. Recently, Dennis Behm sent me this e-mail:
"After all these years-I served in Vietnam June '67-June'68-I am
considering attending the 2014 Reunion in Orlando. This will be the first
time attending and I am looking forward to seeing some of my service
buddies. I couldn't find some of the guys that I flew with, on the Reunion
Website.
"Do you know the whereabouts of David A. Wellner, Richard Ruiz, John J.
McFarlane, Randy D. Dibble, or Gary E. Vining? Dave Wellner was my crew
chief for most of my tour and I believe he lives in Florida.
"Dennis
Behm, gunner 1st Cav/MEDEVAC '67-'68, North Tonawanda, New York."

Assn. President Maurice "Corky Walsh Medevac454@aol.com writes, "As
everyone has gathered, I like to call and check on everyone and see how your
health and well being is.
"I have talked to Gus & Patsy Bensenhaver;
they are doing fine and Gus is doing well after knee surgery. Dan and Ann
Toothman are doing great; John and Barbra Crespi are Iooking good; Dave and
Val are getting ready to move into their new home. I know some times I can
be a pain in the butt for calling but it is my way of staying in touch with
everyone.
"I just talked to Jim Calibro and he told me that the
book-The Conflict that was a War; In Vietnam and at Home-he, Randy and I
helped to write, with sixteen other men from the Modesto VA Center, has sold
over fourteen hundred copies. All monies from the sales of the book go to
help veterans with disabilities.
"I want each and everyone of you to
start thinking about the reunion in Orlando in April, be sure to register
early. Take care, and if you have any questions please do not hesitate to
contact me; Bob; Lee; Jim; and we will get answers to your questions.
