My Fellow Currahees:
By now you all had a chance to read the January 2009 Currahee Newsletter and see the invite to Fort Campbell by the current active duty.
So, am I going to see you in May or not??? Updated information about it can be found up on the 506th Association's web site at Reunion information where you will find hotel info, schedule of events, maps and directions.

HEY! Let's hear from more of you guys who served in the other Platoon, we do not want this to be just a gathering of 3rd Platoon Currahee.
Let me hear from more of you. Let's use this as a opportunity to reconnect once again with those whom you shared so much [water, c-rations and sometimes a foxhole.]
So long for now.
Currahee,
Gene Overton - [C 1/506th - 1967 / 1968]
