Subject: 553 Engineer Re-union

Hey Whats Up
I just wanted to say hi to all of our 553 Engineer Brothers. I can't thank Bill enough for putting this web site together. I also want to say hi to Phil,Mac,Cortland,Bill, and Jim and all of our 553 Engineer Brothers. I would not miss this re-union for anything.I served in 5th platoon from Oct.1967 thru Oct.1968. sometimes as a jeep driver for the platoon leader/platoon sargent.
Last year I met Cortland Parker in Missouri and we had a mini re-union.I am hoping that Phillips and I can get together before Oct. we live about 100 miles apart. I was in Missouri when he called and missed his phone call. I have also had contact with Lieutenant Fontaine one of our platoon leaders.
I guess that we have travled full circle. I can rember after we got out of the Army and it was not cool to mention that we had been to Viet Nam. It is almost like the American people wanted to forget the war.We the soldiers were always patriotic and served our country proudly and honerably.
I only got one thing to say lets all try to make it to the re-union and celebrate our victory , we all made it home. Welcome home guys you can contact me at Grashoper4u@aol.com I am looking forward to seeing every one of you again.Talk to you guys later. Pat Blevins
