Fellow MINUTEMEN. We had another outstanding NMCB 62 reunion at the East Coast All Seabee Reunion held at the Crowne Plaza Hotel, on the waterfront, at Hampton, Virginia the end of February. Attending our business meeting Saturday afternoon were Malcolm Smith, Hanover, PA: Jim Thomas, Gulfport, MS: Paul DiFebo, Wilmington, DE: John Frederick, DuQuoin, IL: Duane Vance, McDonough, GA: John Brian, Baltimore, MD: Larry Wheeler, Edinburgh, IN: Joe Tack, Langhorne, PA: Al Archer, Edgewater, MD: Joe Grocki, Smithfield, VA: Gerry Napert, Potomac Falls, VA: Lyle Stewart, St. Johns, AZ: Rich Micucci and Glenn Williams, both from Philadelphia, PA: Jonathan Grohs, Torrington, CT: Norm Hahn, Eau Claire, WI: and Price Richardson, Salem, VA. Seven of those attending were plank owners. More shipmates would have attended but there were multipal Battalion meetings going on at the same time. The tight ecomony also caused many to not attend this year. We gave away four custom designed NMCB 62 door prizes to attending alumni group members. John Brian; oldest at 67: Joe Grocki; youngest at 49: Lyle Stewart; traveled farthest from St. Johns, Arizona and Price Richardson, Alumni Group President. Two more upcoming reunions in 2011. First in August at Fayetteville, NC for the Seabee Veterans of America 64th annual convention and second in October at the home of the Minutemen, Gulfport, MS. That should be a great reunion as always. See the "Reunion" tab for more information as it becomes available. Also please fill out and submit the on-line biography and membership application on the website. Remember, the Alumni Group Membership Dues are what pay for our website. Thank you and CAN DO.
