My name is Command Sergeant Major Walt Talbott and I am the CSM for a new unit the 48th Combat Support Hospital. We are what they call a multi-compo unit (1/2 Active and 1/2 Reserve). We are activating on the 15th of October 2000 at Ft. Meade Maryland. We are trying to locate 'vets' of the 48th MASH (Korea) and the 48th Portable Surgical Hospital (WWII) to come to our activation. Would also like to have those soldiers participate in the ceremony to place the streamers earned by the 48th on the unit 'colors'. I would like to extend a personal invitation to any soldier(s) that were members of or associated with the 48th.
