WHY VETERANS REUNITE
"I now know why men who have been to war yearn to reunite..Comrades gather becasue they long to be with the men who once acted at their best..I did not pick these men. They were delivered by fate and the military. But I know them in a way I know no other men...As long as I have memory, I will think of them all, every day". Author unknown
If you have reunited with a B Company brother throughout your travels (other than at a reunion), send us a picture and we will post it and share your reunion.

Bill Arnold.
A 2016 Alaskan Cruise took us to Seattle giving us a chance to visit with Rodney White (who has been to a couple of reunions) but also to re-unite with Bill Arnold after 45 years. Talking and remember for a couple of hours and it seemed almost like yesterday.
