Quick report from attendees of 173D Airborne Brigade Reunion…

As you may recall several 503rd members were honored guests at the 173D reunion in Myrtle Beach, SC.  Margee Linton said that the 503rd has never been honored like they were.  Paul Hinds felt like a celebrity and thoroughly enjoyed the fellowship, entertainment, food and events.  We look forward to hearing more about their experience in Dallas!

503rd Members feted as special guests at the 173D Airborne Brigade Reunion

What began as an idea to showcase the 503rd PRCT in the April edition of 2/503d Vietnam Newsletter has grown to several of our members attending the 173D Reunion in Myrtle Beach, SC, June 2-6!  The May edition of their newsletter gives bios of:  Chuck Breit; John Cleland; Paul Hinds; Charley Hylton; Sleepy Linton and Chet Nycum. Chuck, John, Paul, Charley and Chet will participate in an interactive presentation called “Operation Corregidor” on Friday, June 4, 4:00-5:30 p.m.  Dee, Clara (I think), Ginny, Edith, Margee Linton and other family members will be accompanying the men to this reunion.  This opportunity was made possible by Lew Smith, editor of the 2/503d Vietnam Newsletter as well many members of the 173d who have given financial support to make this happen!  Thank you, Paul Whitman, webmaster of the 503rd Heritage Battalion, for putting Smitty in touch with us!  Those attending will have lots to share with us and we look forward to hearing about their trip!
