2012
Joe Basso is the Chair for the 2012 reunion. Pete Leniart has offered to help Joe with the reunion.
This info courtesy of Tom Planes. "I called the Captain of the American Victory in Tampa. He got pumped when I told him that our 2012 reunion was going to be centered around his ship. If we get commitment early enough and get enough commited to come we can do a dinner cruise complete with ship drills and aireal battles I don't think we can start too soon promoting this reunion. I would like for it to be bigger than any before. There are lots of things to do in Tampa the aquarium is next door to the ship and Ybor city offers the finest Spanish cuzine this side of Barcelona. Setting up the accomodations early and sending out monthly reports with keep the hype up."
