Class of 88 Update

Dear Friends:

You can click from here to the registration form for the West Point Class of 1988 20th Reunion and a printable schedule of reunion events.

You'll note that the event prices are much the same as they were five and even ten years ago -- our committee worked hard to keep the reunion reasonable. As always, the reunion has been planned at cost.

As many of you indicated a desire to be somehow "uniformed" for the old grad parade, we created a goodie bag with items for the parade. A registration fee covers the reunion items.

Several companies are holding their own tailgates. We'll start posting those places and times soon. For those companies who desire to hold their tailgates inside Ike prior to the game, that item is on the registration form. For those of you in a company not making any tailgate plans, by all means sign up for the Ike event and say hello.

Homecoming Game tickets must be purchased from Army Athletics. The toll-free phone number is 1-877-TIX-ARMY. Or you may go to the Army Athletics Web site, select "class seating," and scroll down to Class of 1988.

 For those of you who would like to order additional '88 memorabilia items over and above the goodie-bag offerings, go to the AOG site.

 If you have any questions, send me a note at This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it .

Updates to follow. I look forward to seeing you at the reunion.

Best wishes,
Scott

-- Dan Rice (G-2) was recently awarded the Purple Heart Medal. Two classmates, John Vigna (G-2) and Bill Reed (G-4), were on hand for the awarding and pinning by Admiral Olson, commander of Special Operations.

-- Brian Mennes (A-4), new Battalion Commander 1/75 Rangers, continues to make news, after completing command in Afghanistan. I'm not sure what's classified and what's not, but, to be sure, he's kicking ass and instilling the warrior spirit in scores of young, inspired soldiers.


-- Greg Ebner (B-1) has been nominated as Deputy Head of the Department of Foreign Languanges and Professor USMA. So it looks like '88 will have at least one permanent fixture at USMA for decades to come.

-- Dave Kim's (D-4) organization, Children of Fallen Patriots, recently approached the quarter-million-dollar mark for donations. His group provides college scholarships to military kids who have lost a parent to combat in the GWOT. If you'd like to donate or learn more, the organization's website is www.fallenpatriots.org.
