Today was our chapter picnic and I'd thought I'd share a few photos. Turn out was excellent....around 70 people. Members, spouses, and slice elements.

Around 60 folks in this photo.

Mel Kessler, 504th PIR Battle of the Bulge, was in attendence. Here is his hoopty.

Ray Milko, WWII vet of the 11th Airborne. I noticed his tattoo. Here's a close up.

That started a trend:

Korea Vet Carmen Venezia

MM11C, Monte Griffith, and Chapter Vice Chairman Kirk Fellabom

I went over to ask World War II vet Joe Moreland (505th PIR) to show me his wings............he did.

He calls them SICILY, SALERNO, and HOLLAND!! 

I love these old guys!

Great time had by all.

Big Al!

Cool beans! Thanks for sharing the pics!

Looks like you had a great time. I love these get togethers especially the small local ones that you can just pickup and head off to with the family.

Impavidus.....

Latin for Unafraid......

A joker here photoshopped it to read Impotant when I first got it.

Soon he will be visiting my home. He thinks I have forgotten.....I haven't.
