Hey Ed Lang. I was on A flt but I remember your name for some reason. We just had a reunion in Raleigh, NC and REGGIE came over to it. He looks really good, dresses impeccably, and sounds the exact same. In fact, he does not appear to have aged very much at all. We are A Flt guys but he was an early contact as we pulled ourselves together. We are seeking names, numbers, pics and whatever for our work. We have a Facebook page ….http://www.facebook.com/groups/169889279725602/257903140924215/?notif_t=group_activity (It is private you will have to send us a note for admission.and feel free to email me at Abh1171@aol.com, if you wanna see some real FB Alaska pics and stories. Have u stayed in contact with any guys on other Flts (especially A FLT)? We are seeking, Rob Martin,Kowlaski, Petersen, Max Jones, Ralph Lane and a few other guys.

Looking for Rob Martin from Louisiana or Texas, and Ralph Lane from Michigan. Both served at the 6981st on A Flight within the 1968-1971 time frame. Rob went to the 6924th, Ramasun Station, Thailand. Not sure where Ralph went after AK.

Richard, I wish I had seen your message sooner. The information came from Joe Martin, who was at the 6981st. Joe is originally from Western North Carolina and ran into Pete Lawson a number of years ago. Pete was the editor of a newspaper in Bryson, NC. Joe told me last March that he went back to Bryson a couple of years ago to see Pete, and found out that he had retired and that he died in August 2009. I remember Pete at work with a pipe in his mouth and a bemused look on his face.
