Its so crazy to me talking to veterans of various wars, how different things were/are. The things soldiers/sailors feared always seems to be the same, but its means of getting to them usually changes from war to war. I am definitely looking forward to meeting everyone and exchanging stories. I'll do what I can about the drinks, but I'm scraping together for this trip as it is... I'll be relatively lucky if I can afford to get myself drunk at every stop lol

I've started a list offline. Please PM me your reservation info (including the hotel addresses, I don't need the rates) and I'll create a 'hidden' list that will be available via email or PM. I'll also put a 'tally' list without details on this thread periodically. Thx.Ed, Mary, & 'Earl'
