Spring 2008 Newsletter

My name is Jim Seymour.  I was an orderly room clerk/mail clerk for the 3918th Air Base/Transportation Squadrons at RAF Upper Heyford, England from 1960 to 1963.  My ex-Heyford Buddy Wally Dice who reconnected  with me over ten years ago came up with this reunion idea.  Both Wally and I were on the Heyford Drill Team.  We lived in the Transportation Barracks.  Right next to the 3918th USAF Dispensary.  I was also a bartender at the Heyford Airmens Club and played squadron softball and basketball.  I also help Pete Miramontz at the Reflex Theater.
 
   The 2008 Reunion will be held in Branson, MO, October 12-16   The San Antonio reunion was a success with about 50 people. Everyone had a
good time and are looking forward to the 2008 reunion.
 
   I have been able to locate a lot more people since the 2006 and 2008 reunions.  I I have been able to locate quite few people who were on the Heyford "Minutemen" Drill Team, the Championship Sky King Basketball Team, the Championship Softball Team, and many for the early 50's.
 
   It seems that we are finding more and more people from the years 1950-1965
and hope that our 2008 reunion will be enjoy by even more people then the first two reunions.
