A room at the Indiana University of Pennsylvania, Indiana, PA is dedicated to LT Flannery. His friends are enhancing the memorial and having a mural-like tribute prepared that will be dedicated on tentative weekend of April 21/22 2012. University officials will attend. Current commander of 2/34 Armor at Fort Riley may attend or send reps. Some C Co vets will likely attend. I'm sure any Dreadnaught vet is welcome to attend. For more info, send me an email. |

| Comments: | What a priviledge to see people reconnect after as much as 44 years . To witness the love and respect that was present is priceless. Thank you all for coming . As long as the Good Lord allows us the gift of life , we should exercise the bond that exists between us , from all Companies and all the years that the 2/34th Armor - Dreadnaughts were deployed to Vietnam . Reach out to those who have not attended and encourage them to come to the next one.The Reunion was a success because of each and every one of the attendees , Veterans , Spouses , Children , and Grandchildren .God Bless you and keep you until we meet again .

| Comments: | Time is drawing nigh for the Reunion . It appears that we will have around 230 attendees . The weather is projected to be 80 to 82 degrees for highs Thursday through Sunday next week , with lows in the 62 to 64 degree range .50% rain chance on Thursday ,30% Friday , none on Saturday . Usually 30% chance means no rain here . I hope that is the case for the cruise . I'm looking forward to seeing you all next week . Be safe.

| Comments: | It looks as if we are going to surpass the 200 mark , including spouses and guests . What I need to know is how many want to make one of the side trips , Fort Cambbell in Particular . I'll need to let Ltc O'Brien know so he can get our party through the gate with a minimum of delay . They usually don't give tours on weekends , but he said we would get a tour for us . As our brothers are deployed to Afghanistan , the 101st is in the process of coming home.God Bless them all .
We will also need to know how many wish to go to Lynchburg to tour the Jack Daniels Distillery . Both trips are at least an hours drive from the Radisson .We'll have to buddy up as the trips are by POV.Stay safe and we'll see you in a short while. Richard C.( Rick ) Welch |

| Comments: | I just received an update from Kristin Rohlf , who is handling our reservations at the Radisson for our Reunion. We have filled the original block of 70 rooms , so she is adding more to have them available for those of you who have not yet made reservations . The cut off date is April 26th , 2011 . Please get your registration forms to Lt Pat as soon as possible . We have a block of 140 Opry Tickets and if we need to reserve more , I need to speak for them as soon as possible. I don't want us to be short of tickets for the Opry , or The Music City Queen cruise . We need the count also for the banquet to insure that there are enough place settings and food. It won't be long until the Reunion , and I am looking forward to seeing you in Nashville. God Bless you all .Respectfully , Rick Welch |

| Comments: | I just got an update from Kristin Rohlf , who is handling the room reservations for our Reunion May 26th -- 29th . We have filled the 70 room block originally reservered . She is adding some more rooms so that potential attendees who have not made reservations , will be able to get accomodations . If you have not made your reservations , please do so as soon as possible. The cut off date is April 26th . Also , be sure to get your registration form for the Reunion to Lt. Pat as soon as possible . I have to get the final numbers in to Jamie Hulet for the Opry tickets . Our original block of tickets is 140 . If we need additional tickets , I need to get them reserved as soon as possible .I would hate to not have enough tickets for everyone to attend the Opry . The same thing applies to the banquet and the cruise aboard the Music City Queen Riverboat.

| Comments: | The saying that there are no free rides is definitely true . Gaylord is charging for shuttle service to just about everywhere . Some of their prices might make it less expensice to use cabs or in many cases , povs with car pooling to various locations by members who wish to see the same sights . I am contacting the Nashville Chamber of Commerce to see if they can help with obtaining discounts on transportation , car rentals , tours , etc. Gaylord might be competitive on some things and not on others . We want to get the most bang for our buck in todays world. We have done that on everything so far , and we will do this on the transportation area as well.As we get more options , in this area , I'll get the information out .Respectfully , Rick Welch |

He , Jim Carroll and I had lunch together in E-Town last year and he had been to the doctor that morning But did not say why. I was looking forward to seeing him in Nashville this year . May God Bless Him and his family as the world has been a better place for his having been here.

| Comments: | If you have any problems making reservations through the central reservations number for the Radisson Opryland Hotel , call Kristen Rohlf at 615-231-8816 and she will take care of the problem . If she isn't there , leave her a voice mail. She is working hard to get the reservations department straitened out as pertains to the reservations for our reunion .Evidently her predecessor did not get the correct information to central reservations .This is being taken care of . Let me know if you have any problems booking a room and it will be addressed.See you in Nashville in May. God Bless you all

| Comments: | Me and my unit, the 43rd Engineer Company, was with the 2nd/34th Armor, as well as elements of the llth Armored Cav Regiment, enroute to Vietnam in August/September 1966 aboard the USNS Barrett. Played cards with some of you guys on ship, and ran into elements of the 2nd/34th in III Corps during various operations that lst year. Fond memories of your unit. Remember the typhoon at sea and being diverted from Okinawa to Subic Bay...and the rationing of water aboard? And those massive waves? Best wishes and regards to all of you! |

| Comments: | The registation fee for the 2011 covers the Opry Tickets , River Cruise , and the T-shirt , as well as the Banquet for Association members( $100 ) and spouses ( $80 ). The $40 for children would cover the additional tickets we might need to purchase for them . I hope this clears up any confusion that there might be concerning Reunion costs. If you have any other questions , e-mail me at richardwelch513@comcast.net, or 615-356-9665 . I am looking forward to seeing all of you who can make it , in May.Best Wishes , Rick Welch |
