Hello to everyone, I know it is early but I wanted to wish everyone a happy Thanksgiving. I also want to let everyone know that I switch web host and that my website is now called Mayaguez Fallen Heroes.com.

I hope to see all of you in Branson for the reunion.

Warriors,
November is here. Happy Birthday Marines! You all look pretty good for your age. Happy Veterans Day also, thank you all for your military service to our great nation. We are a band of brothers that nobody can break apart. To be fair, I also want to wish the other military services a happy birthday and that them to for their service to the U.S.A. We military all have a common bond; that we are willing to put our lives on the line for the protection of country. For those that gave the ultimate sacrifice, we remember you, your name, and your families.
Fratres Aeterni,
Scott

Tex Eugene Duke and I are looking forward to attending the next reunion in Branson, MO. Neither of us have ever been to one of your reunions before.

I know Tex will be honored to stand with those of you he served with on this mission.

I am so proud of each and everyone of you. I will consider it a GREAT PRIVILEDGE to be in the company of such brave and patriotic heroes.

May God be with each and everyone of you for all eternity. - Jan Q. Koch

I wrote this poem with love and gratitute for my personal hero,
Tex Eugene Duke, USMC
Written by Jan Q. Koch, October 17, 2011

Thank You Vets and Soldiers

As I lie here in my bed tonight
all safe, and dry, and warm
I'm reminded now of those who fight
To keep us safe from harm

They may be lying in a hole somewhere
with the raindrops falling down
In the cold and dark, they dream of home
and pray not to be found

For the enemy is closing in
Their brave hearts start to pound
They "dig in" and prepare to fight
Right there, on foreign ground

Do you understand their sacrifice?
Have you ever stopped to care?
Do you realize that what you have...
is because those troops were there?

They got the call, were proud to serve
So that you and I could live
It's time to give what they deserve
Is "thanks" too much to give?

I was at Utapo Air Base Thiland in 1975 and remember seeing a bunch of marines marching to our chow hall for lunch. I was sent to Guam with about 30 other airman to load B-52 to help with the rescue. Thank you for what you did and If you do go to Branson in 2012 I live about 6 hours away and it would be interesting to meet all of you.

I just left the USS Coral Sea reunion in St Louis where I met a Chief who told me of this site. Very well done. I served on the Coral Sea during 75 when this happened. He said you were going to have a reunion in Branson in 2012. Keep me posted, I should be able to make it.

Blessings to all

Mike
