To establish clarity in regard to DQS Reunion Dates, we offer the following. The DQS Reunion will be held (unless otherwise announced due to site related factors) during the second half of the week that contains the second full weekend in July.
Therefore: 2005 July 6-10 2006 July 5-9 2007 July 11-15 and so on. Hopefully this will help all in planning your vacations and attendance at our reunions.
INDIVIDUAL WEAPON SHIRTS & JACKETS In response to requests received, we will place one (1) more order for T-shirts and Jackets with the individual weapons (Duster, Quad, Searchlight) on them. Use the Order Form in this newsletter to order. Order must be made by May 15th. ** We will make every effort to 'hold' to the pricing for the Jackets that is on the Order Form. We will not be able to guarantee this until we know the number of Jackets to be ordered and place a preliminary order with the vendor. If a price variation is required, you will have a brief opportunity to cancel your order, if desired. Call Clyde, if you have questions. (847)-695- 7659 All remaining stock of these items will be available at the reunion. Our intent is to have the 'new design' T-shirts and Jackets at the reunion also.

Some of you may find this to a an enjoyable, interesting outing KOKOMO (Indiana Vietnam Veterans reunion): Hugh Roberts, (989)-637-4229, is heading up our effort in securing camping lots at Kokomo.

Reunion Notices in Publications: Lloyd Stokes, (256)-721-0913, will be heading up this effort. Each year we desire to place such notices in as many appropriate publications as possible.

Lloyd will develop a list and keep record on who/if the contact is made. He will make submittals in the absence of a volunteer to do so. Help us reach those who 'find' us via these notices!
