The 1998 Reunion for alumni of the
161st AHC was on June 27, 1998 during the VHCMA reunion in Irving, Texas. Those that
attended, I can say, had a good time, seeing some of the guys for the first time since
Vietnam. Out of approximately 125 invitation sent, we had only 11 folks who actually
showed up. I saw a few more the following weekend during the VHPA reunion in Fort
Worth.
Come on guys, I think we can do better than this. So next year, we will try again in
conjunction with the VHCMA reunion in Denver, Colorado during the last week in June 1999.John H. Hastings (817) 923-2561 at home or (817)
