What we did.  
Friday, Oct. 13th: Arrival reception around Harry’s Pool Bar at Sirata Resort.  About 31 of the vets showed up for cocktails and then it was off to Silas Dents for Dinner and more drinks.  The night ended up at Sirata Lobby Lounge whereas about 8 of the seasoned Vets closed the place down, or almost.  . 
Saturday, Oct. 14th:       10:00  AM started with a hang-over for some and we spent the day telling lies and showing the DVD's and slides.  Notable DVD' included the Super 8 movies converted by Jim Sanders and Tracy Presser which we were able to project for all to see.  (These images will be available shortly vis this website)   
6:00 PM – 10:00 PM we boarded the Starlight Princess for our dinner cruise with speaker George Calder Supervisor of the Florida Dept. of Veterans Affairs at Bay Pines.  Interested facts and pointer were obtained for the benefits of both Vets and Spouses for now and into the future.  Lt. Joe Vetrano read the list of our departed comrades in arms and we toasted them in sprit.  An outstanding dinner was served and we visited and listened to the band and did some dancing.  Everyone split at 10:00 PM when the boat landed to watch the Gators have a melt down. It was a great night and the weather was perfect.
Sunday, Oct. 15th:  Breakfast at Resort Restaurant. for those that were up and at them.  Goodbye's by all and a promise to get together in a year at Chat A Ways for lunch and plan a Caribbean Cruise for the 40th Anniversary of our Call Up.  So put it on your calendar now Oct 2008.

George Calder gave me his direct e-mail to his Bay Pines office and is standing by to help with any claims you may want to submit for Service Connected Disability.  CalderG@FDVA.STAGE.FL.us
