The very last reunion of the WWII 5th Armored Division will be held just before Memorial Day this month in Bangor, Maine. We are losing the "Greatest Generation" quickly now. Many of the 5th Armored are from New England.

Maine veterans of more recent wars are going to join them at their banquet. We (of the pretty good generation) expect to have 1,000 veterans present to honor those old warriors. I think those old timers will be surprised. Just thought I would mention it here.

Wonderful. I hope they feel as honored as they are. My dad was in the 101st Infantry, though as far as I know, he was never borne by air. ;-)
