Veterans Day
On Veterans Day, I traveled with Nevin Price and Nicholas Chacos to their B-26 Veterans Days meeting at the American Legion Post in Fairfax, VA. I took a bunch of photo at their meeting, one of which include  three B-26 crewmen...it is unique because all three of them lived on Massachusetts Ave in D.C. And did not know it until they served in the same B-26 squadron...Harry Cladouhas, Joseph Gionfriddo, and Roy Haverkamp! I also went with Nevin to his doctor's appointment before the meetig. He was dressed in his Korean War major unform ( he also served in WII as a B-26 gunner). The parking lot people gave him free paring and several mn saluted him as he left the doctor's office!

Retirement photoshow posted
One of my group in TAS will be retiring at the end of the year and I put together a photoshow of pictures of Paula Orzel or people she knows. She is from Philadelphia and in case you want a sneek preview, click on the link above to see the show. Betty Denton had a big hand in this project, getting photos from all over the country. It will be shown to her at her party later this year. (She currently does not have a personal computer, so if you know her, do not tell her about this show!)
