| First call for the February 2012 Luncheon. - 1130 hrs, WEDNESDAY, 22 February, The Retreat of Dunwoody. See Log Annex for details. (NOTE CHANGED DAY!!!!!) OK, so Gloom Period isn't so gloomy this year! On to February: Our speaker is Mr. John Busch. John is no relation to the Busch's of beer fame, so don't expect any free samples! He is, however, an expert on the Steamship Savannah, the first ship to cross the Atlantic solely under steam power. John will tell us about that first historic crossing, chronicled in his book, "The Steam Coffin." Ever since Robert Fulton built his first steamboat in 1803, such craft have been contemporaneous with our Rock-bound Highland Home! The Clermont was the first SUCCESSFUL steamboat, plying the waters of the Hudson between NYC & Albany. There are generations of Grads who recall the sidewheeler steamboats (Ginch Boats) that came up from NYC & either stopped at West Point, or passed by Kissing Rock & blew their whistles! Even though Lanlubbing soldiers, we are historically inextricably tied to the steamboat!!!!! For questions, call Don Reinhard (770) 893-1323 Don Reinhard '59, Luncheon Chair
