Les Long, formerly of D Battery and his wife Elaine were our hosts and did a wonderful job of putting things together. We have an active group who attend these reunions and if you are not attending, you're missing out on some good times. Next year, in October, 2004, we will gather in Midland, Texas. Exact dates are yet to be determined. And thinking ahead, we will all get together in Grand Rapids, Michigan in 2005. Plan on making one or both of these reunions. Cliff Schiesinger (formerly a Headquarters Battery member) lives in Midland and will be our host in 2004. With much help from him, I maintain the mailing roster of all ex-68th fellows whose addresses we know. Currently, there are over 650 names on the roster which includes mailing address, telephone number where known, and the battery they served in. If we know their email address, we have that also. And finally, we keep a roster of the deceased. If you want to be added to the mailing list (or find out if you're already on it) send me the following information: Your full name, to include middle initial Your wife's name (if you wish) Mailing address (include email if you have one) Battery you served with (508th SRMU members are welcome) Telephone number Finally, if you are looking for a particular buddy, email me if you have a computer and I will get back to you. If you don't have a computer, send me a self-addressed and stamped envelope and I'll get back in touch with you. My email and postal addresses: Charles E.

LOLAMY CONNECTION |
| RICK LEWIS wrote on September 28, 2003 City and State: Unit: Service or Relationship: INTERESTED PERSON Comments: I entered "Lolamy" to try to find information about my former unit. I served in Germany from '68 to '71 in the 1st Battalion 68th Artillery and our unit crest was Lolamy. Seeing as how this is the 68th AAA, I'm thinking there must be a connection and the unit was reorganized at some point in time after Korea. (My dad served in the 300th FA in Korea). At any rate, I'm interested in the connection. My unit was a Sergeant Missile batallion. Thanks for any help. Rick Keywords: 1/68th Field Artillery |
