Koh Tang Mayaguez Vets Organization Guest Book

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

There has been a September 11th since the current calendar has existed. Hardly anyone thought anything like the conversion of that date to 911. As Pearl Harbour being a day that will live in infamy, so to will 11 Sept 2001. Parents and grandparents remember exactly where they were when they found out what happened in Hawaii, so to will each of us on 911. We must pass down to our children these events. Do not leave it to the school teachers - it is our job. We must never forget any part of our American history. A notable date to start teaching is 15 May 1975. Your children, nephews, and nieces deserve the opportunity, to at least to know that you want to tell them about that part of history. We as a people must know where we have come from, to know where we are headed. Our immediate duty is to remember these dates and others throughout our beloved American history. But it is equally our duty to tell others of this American story for the past 230 plus years.
We must never forget, especially their names - that is all we have. God of the Bible (KJV) has blessed America since it's beginning, let's pray each day for this glorious nation to continue it's perservere and endurance through all challenges foreign and domestic.

P.S. My father died at age 75 on September 11th 1996.

Good Evening Family

As we reflect on the events of 10 years ago today, let's say a silent prayer for the young men and women who work to preserve that such an atrocity never happens again.

God Bless

For all of you in the path of the hurricane, stay safe.

CAT 3 hurricane Irene is going to paralell the East coast. At sometime it will "By the left flank" and ambush some state along the eastern seaboard. Like life, we never know what is going to happen while we are on this long range patrol through life. We can only prepare for the worst and hope for the best. Then we should remember; by name, events, circumstances, mistakes, positives, and negatives. Remember the people that you went through hard times with and reminise about that time together. Yes, it is painfull to remember and talk about. But this is our duty not ever to forget.
