Subject: DPB Day in Hollywood

JAG Fans were out in force today to celebrate Don's momentous
occasion. We saw many friends from the Fest and made many new
ones. We arrived early but weren't the first ones as 2 people had
been there since 7am! Joining the group along the fence we chatted
with fans from around the world.

As the time neared, the stars started trickling in: The entire cast
of JAG (including Randy Vasquez, W.K. Stratton and Dana Sparks) and
NCIS was there, Jack Scalia from Tequila and Bonnetti, Scott Bakula
(who spoke eloquently on Don's behalf) from Quantum Leap, Larry
Mannetti from Magnum PI and James Karen from First Monday. (Forgive
us the spelling and if we forget anyone)

The ceremony began with an introduction from the honorary mayor,
Johnny Grant. Then Garry Hart, president of Paramount television
productions, spoke of DPB in glowing terms and told a funny story
about how on Tequila and Bonnetti Don had to hire a language
translator for the dog! Scott Bakula followed and had very nice
things to say about Don. The mayor then proclaimed it Donald P.
Bellisario day in Hollywood and presented Don with the certificate.
DPB spoke briefly as he tried to thank all that had come today and
all that had been with him throughout the years. He even had a
special treat as his oldest friend from Pennsylvania was there to
share in his achievement. The star was then unveiled in true
Hollywood fashion and the flashbulbs were flashing from fan and star
alike.

It was a wonderful day and I know all were honored to be there to
share it with Don.

Thank you all so much for the messages that have been pouring in for
the memory book. Keep them coming!! We will have pictures posted
of this event at our site, http://www.jagfanfest.org by no later
than Thursday.

Check the site on Wednesday for the first group of pictures from
JAG's 200th celebration!!
