Compatriots and Friends:

Plans have now been solidified for our San Diego Reunion for November 9-13, 2005. We hope many of you are planning to attend and will have a great time.

Note that this is probably our most military Reunion since Pat, Barb, and I took over the planning of these Reunions. We will have our TAPS Memorial Service and lunch following at the Naval Air Station at North Island and the next day the Memorial Day Parade and B-24 Model Dedication Ceremony. We will be joined at the latter by many other B-24 veterans.

Therefore, be sure to bring your BLUE jackets so we make a great show to our other compatriots at the dedication. If you don't have one, we can get you one, as you know.

Looking forward to seeing you all.

        To preserve the memory of the 380th.

                Sincerely,

                Theodore J. (Ted) Williams
