Info for 39th Engineer Reunion 2015

Walts Daughter — Tue, 31 Mar 2015 18:56:56 +0000

Good Morning,

Jim Shamblen has set up a block of 10 rooms for the 39th association for us that are planning on attending the stand-up of the 39th at Fort Campbell, KY. The date of the stand-up is April 16, 2015; hotel information is listed below. I will be posting this on the 39th group site and also have Walter post it on the website if possible.

Carolyn & I have made our reservations and will be arriving the evening of the 15th with Diane & Gale in tow.

Hope to see you there.

Forgot 1 important bit of information that is needed for the 39th reactivation. CPT Tyandre Ellis who is my main contact at Fort Campbell has requested a list of names so that he can have seating arranged for us as a group; this is so there possibly can be some type of recognition during the stand-up.

If you are planning on attending please let me know by e-mail (listed below) as soon as possible; I have indicated that I will have a list or at least a head count for him next week.

Thank you for your response.

BROTHERS THEN, BROTHERS NOW, BROTHERS FOREVER

I have set up a block of 10 rooms at the Holiday Inn Ex[press hotel below for the 15th-17th (2 Nights) @ $92 + tax for the 39th ENG BN Association.

Believe we need to get this on the Web Site with an announcement of the activation and as much info as available..

I suppose we could get the block increased if we need to.

I will go down earlier to do some work at the 101st Association HQ.

Walts Daughter — Sun, 18 Jan 2015 04:46:59 +0000

Well plans are coming together. We are selecting between two hotels right now and will let everyone know when things are finalized. Should know within the next couple of days.

Dates as they stand today: Oct 14th-18th, 2015 and will take place in the greater Philly, PA area.

284th and 291st

cincinnatikid — Sun, 14 Dec 2014 13:42:34 +0000

There has been some preliminary talk of combining the reunions of the 284th and the 291st! The first joint reunion will most likely be the summer of 2016 in the Boston area. More details coming as they become known!

The reason for this early post is to put the offer out there in case any other Engineer Battalions want to join in! The groups are getting smaller so banding together could be beneficial to many of us.

291st Engineer Reunion - 2014

Walts Daughter — Thu, 15 May 2014 14:23:59 +0000

Thank you for the info Tony Consiglio. Please see attached PDF file.

36th/540th Reunion - September 11-14, 2014

Walts Daughter — Sun, 29 Sep 2013 15:16:57 +0000

Well it looks like there WILL BE another reunion in 2014. Great news!

Everything is in the works right now. Looks like a possible October date, but nothing is in stone right now. A good possibility that it will take place on the east coast. Many of the vets live out that way, so it would be nice for them.

If all is well, I plan on attending, as does Colin (our buddy from England), so good lord providing, we will toast to the vets, yet another time.

Keep tuned for more info as it comes our way.
