From Mick:

Colonel Morris,

Ron, Please post to 2/3 V.V.A. website. Thanks much.

Link to 90 second video is good to open.

The dedication of March 29 for recognition of U.S. Veterans of the Vietnam War is appreciated.

I am grateful for Secretary Wilkie's announcement. Would have been even more grateful if he knew how many names are on the Vietnam Veterans Memorial in D.C. "More than 58,000" shows little effort to research the number, which has changed over the years.

Semper Fidelis

Below is SECRETARY Wilkie's Public Service Announcement for this year.

Air Show from Mick

From Mick

Dear Family and Friends,

The Annual Air Show @ Jones Beach, Long Island, NY will take place on 23 and 24 May 2020, 1000-1500.

The U.S.N. Blue Angels (F-18 Super Hornets) usually appear towards the end of the show sometime after 1330.

Advise however you get there early for best viewing and vehicle parking. The show epicenter is the J.B. Water Tower which looks like an obelisk. The water tower can be seen, weather permitting, from miles away and can't be confused with any other man-made features.

Best viewing by boat is from the ocean outside the U.S.C.G. exclusion zone OR from Zachs Bay. Get to gentle waters of the bay early if you want a decent spot with some room to anchor properly.

Be prepared to deal with crowds.

Insider tip: PRACTICE air show will take place on Friday, 22 May 2020, 1000-1500. Just as good as "the" show with 80% less people, cars and boats.

My tentative plan is to attend on Friday and Saturday. Maybe boat or maybe car.

For more information see bethpageairshow.com or google Jones Beach Air Show 2020.

Enjoy the show while remembering and praying for Members of the Armed Forces who sacrificed their lives for the Freedoms we enjoy today.

God Bless America!

Marines, I received a phone call from Truman and Dennis Fields, their older brother passed away last week and they have a motorized scooter to give away to any needy members of our association. The vehicle cost around 6000 and is a heavy duty scooter. call or leave a message if you are interested.
