Glad to find a new site for the 1/509th. Looking forward to Reno, NV. Does anyone know if Bar Septembre is still operating in Vicenza?

Welcome to the DZ. Last I heard it was gone. Last time I saw that place was June of 86.

Chip, welcome to the site.  I was in B Company from 1978-1980.  If you need anything from the Association let me know.

Barry, please send me information on the 1/509th Association. I would like to join if there is a membership. I have an old Airborne Association of the 509th ABCT card dated 1-31-80 to 12-80 member #789 signed by Terry K Thrash, Commo Officer. Do any of you guys out there still have one of these? I will scan it and post within he next couple of weeks(busy at work) to see if it jogs anyones memory. 

Just a note, I lost my Belgium jump certificate about 15 years ago (divorce) and contacted the Jump school in Schaffen. They bent over backwards to research my information and issue me a new certificate. I offered to pay and they would not accept payment. Just in case anyone has lost or their certificate was destroyed, they still have your records.

Chip, shoot me your e-mail address and I will send you the documents.  When did you get your Belgium wings?  I went in July of 1979, the same one Cpt. Rowley was on.  Send me the information on getting a new certificate because mine came up missing long ago and I would love to get a replacement.
