Looking for original military yearbook (1944) 62nd CB Minutemen. My Uncle Ralph Brohard is in it several places, and I would dearly love to have a copy and more than willing to pay.

I made an error on the post (below) about the 2024 NMCB 62 ANNUAL meeting Sunday morning. I should have said our meeting is going to be held in April, the same month as the reunion.


This is correct:
NMCB 62 will hold our annual meeting on Sunday morning, 14 APRIL 2024 in the main ball room, probably from 0930 to 1130. At 1200 will be the final picnic meal in the main ball room. The "official" reunion will be over then. BUT, NMCB 62 will hold its final party that Sunday afternoon by the hotel pool.

9-18-2023: For All: I asked Bob Smith of Island X-1 for the dates of the 2024 All Seabee Gulfport Reunion. Here is his reply:
📷Robert Smith To: Norm Hahn Sat, Sep 16 at 3:24 PM Hello Norm, Right now we are tentatively scheduled for 11 - 14 April 2024. Nothing is set in stone of course. We are trying to get in line with Seabee Days again with the base. No events or locations have been locked in yet. Take Care, Bob

People ask:

Whose names are on your list in this website??

Is my old buddy so and so on your list??

These are the most emailed questions I get asked.

The answer to both those questions is in link # 20. Link # 20 is ALL 2585 of the names contained in our NMCB 62 database.

If your buddy's name is not on link # 20 that means he has not contacted me, or died before he could contact me.

If you know of a Minuteman buddy who has died, send me an email and tell me he has died. I will make that change and update his database.

If you have a good Seabee story about your buddy, send me an email telling me the story and I'll put that in his database.
