I WANT TO THANK EVERYONE

FIRST,,, THANK YOU MOM FOR SENDING ME TO RMA.
NEXT,,, I WANT TO THANK EACH AND EVERYONE OF YOU, FOR SEVERAL REASONS.
I WAS CONCERNED THAT I MIGHT NOT BE ABLE PRESENT A DISPLAY THAT WAS FITTING, ONE THAT WOULD SHOW THE IMPACT THAT RMA HAD ON THIS CADET. IT DID NOT TAKE LONG FOR YOU TO LET ME KNOW YOU LIKED WHAT YOU SAW.

THANKS TO THOSE OF YOU THAT HELPED UNLOAD AND SET UP THE DISPLAY ON THURSDAY. THANKS TO THOSE THAT HELPED PACK IT ALL AGAIN ON SUNDAY AND LOAD IT ALL FOR THE TRIP HOME.

THANKS TO THE REUNION PLANNING COMMITTEE FOR LETTING ME TAKE PART IN THIS REUNION. I HAVE NEVER BEEN TO ANY KIND OF REUNION BEFORE. I WANT TO BE AT FUTURE REUNIONS, GOD WILLING.

THANKS FOR THE HONORS YOU BESTOWED ON ME, I WILL STRIVE TO BE WORTHY OF THEM. I HOPE TO NEVER LET YOU DOWN.

I DID NOT NAME ANYONE IN THIS THANK YOU NOTE, IT IS A THANK YOU NOTE NOT A LIST OF EVERYONE THAT ATTENDED.

THANKS AGAIN

GENE SHALANDER SR.

HERB;

THANK YOU FOR YOUR KIND WORDS. I AM HAPPY THAT YOU WERE PLEASED WITH THE DISPLAYS. MANY OTHERS ALSO HAD ITEMS THERE AND THEY MADE IT A GRAND EXIBIT. SEVERAL CADETS TOLD ME OVER THE WEEKEND THAT I HAD DONE A GOOD THING. I HUMBLY SAY IT WAS MY PLEASURE TO BRING A FEW MEMORIES AND SHARE THEM WITH EVERYONE. I HAVE TO SAY THAT THOSE WERE NOT MY DISPLAYS THAT YOU SAW. THEY WERE OUR DISPLAYS. WE HAVE A LOT TO REMEMBER AND I WILL DO MY BEST TO PRESERVE OUR HISTORY AND MAKE OUR EXIBIT GROW EVEN LARGER NEXT TIME. I AM NOW THE HISTORIAN AND CURATOR OF YOUR ARTIFACTS. WE HAVE A GREAT DISPLAY I AM HAPPY TO SAY I HAD A HAND IN PRESENTING IT FOR YOU TO ENJOY. THANK YOU.
