Currahee Rendezvous 2009

Currahee Rendezvous 2009 is over. COL Pete Johnson and the entire brigade welcomed Currahee veterans home to Ft. Campbell May 28-30, 2009. Highlights of the week included attending the Awards Ceremony where 4 Currahees received Silver Stars for Valor in Afghanistan, Tours of training facilities, a family Bar-B-Que with family activities, induction of Currahees as Distinguished Members of the Regiment and the Currahee Ball held at Opryland. If you weren't there, you missed a fantastic week. I reconnected with friends from long ago and met new friends much younger. I look forward to the next reunion and helping the current Currahees with their projects and adjusting to being home again. Currahee!
