Reunion Updates: From Jeff Hackett, Grand Poobah of the Reunion Committee: Our 50th Reunion planning is currently ON GLIDEPATH and ON CENTERLINE! We are expecting approximately 400 fellow graduates to be on hand for the festivities at Hotel Polaris, the Cadet Area, and Falcon Stadium (Wed 29 Oct – Sat 1 Nov). As a BEST ALIVE guy, you owe it to yourself and your Classmates to come renew those friendships, retell those stories, and walk those hallowed halls again together. For further information and to register, go to reunions.usafagroups.org/class-of-1975.
Rich Chanick is one of the underlings on the reunion committee who, when Jeff says “Jump,” replies, “I don’t think so on account of my knees sound like a bowl of Rice Krispies when I walk, and I have a well-documented aversion to symbols of authority.” However, Rich jumped at the chance to head up the class program to provide financial assistance to any classmate that wants to attend the reunion but for whom the cost would be a hardship. He reports several classmates have already contacted him. The program is completely confidential and has minimal hoops to jump through, so if anyone needs a “boost” to make the trip happen, contact Rich at Rchanick@gmail.com.
Wanderers: Stan “Chumley” and Mary Collins dropped in on Stan “Sluggo” and Wanda Siefke (apparently the Stans of the world are adept at acquiring dubious nicknames) in Niceville, FL, where they were treated to a pod of dolphins, a nine-foot alligator, and Sluggo’s model railroad that takes up half of the Siefke garage. Wanda has laid down a “blue line of death” in the garage, and any rails or railroad cars that cross the line are subject to certain and utter destruction.
