Pete Birchmeire needs our help.
Pete Birchmeire, BU3, 3rd Deployment 1969 in Dong Ha now living in Gregory, Michigan is not doing well. He is in the ICU at the Ann Arbor Michigan Veterans Hospital in real bad shape with cancer and a hernia. His wife Theressa has a serious heart condition and has put off her treatment since Pete has gotten sick. They have used up all their savings and are in really tough financial shape. If anyone could send them some money or a card of encouragement that would be wonderful. They both are Christians and a very loving family. Pete was in Viet Nam with MCB 62. He was stationed at Gulfport. Their address is: 13720 Unadilla Rd. Gregory, MI. 48137 Theressa's cell phone is 734-323-4255. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you, Jim and Judy Thomas. BU2, MCB 62, 3rd Deployment.

Looking for information about my Uncle, Charles W Rea, who was with NMCB62, Alpha Co. in Vietnam during 1968. He passed away in 1971 so any information would be greatly appreciated.

I want to let you all know that Capt. Chuck Fegley, our former XO and CO of NMCB 62 and his wife will be attending the 2019 April All Seabee Gulfport reunion.

Captain Fegley also was the OIC of the PM-3A nuclear reactor project in the Antarctic from Sep 63 to Nov 64.

He was the XO on our 2nd Deployment to DaNang and the 3rd Deployment to Dong Ha.
He was the CO on our 9th Deployment to Okinawa (last 4 months), the 10th Full Deployment to Diego Garcia and the 11th Deployment to Guam (first 4 months).

I have asked the Island X-1 Reunion Committee to have him as the Banquet Speaker on Saturday night.

He will for sure speak at our Minuteman Annual Meeting on Sunday morning. Each of you at that meeting will also have time to say a few words. Many photos will be taken. Please bring your wife. Captain Fegley's bio including contact information is in his database, link 21 of our website. He is looking forward to meeting again all who served together with him. It is OK to contact him by email or phone.

The Best Western Hotel is taking reservations now. See our website link 1 for more reunion info including the email address for you to sign up to get your reunion forms through your email and the phone # for the hotel.

If you have any questions, send me an email.
Thanks, Norm.

The Cruise book "Guam and Pacflt Sites, May 1978 - Jan 1979 (our 11th Deployment) has been donated to any alumni member of that deployment by then CM2 Barry DeChaine, A Co. The cost to the alumni member? Only the postage $$. Email me to claim it.
