2002 Reunion - 60th Anniversary

The 60th Anniversary of VMD-154 was celebrated September 27-28-29, 2002, at the Strongsville, Ohio Holiday Inn--by the following group of 15: Doc and Margaret Willis; Jo Ann Leonard; Lila and Corky Cox; David Fry; Ed and Gloria Klimes; Jim and Thersa Miles; Phil Chenard; Sam and Dorothy Mizer; and Bob and Ann Lehman.

A time of reminiscing and laughing was enjoyed. Many photo albums appeared and were appreciated. We were grateful for the Memorium plaque that David Fry had someone make and the Ready Room plaque that Jim Miles delivered to us.

Most of this group traveled quite a distance to attend this Reunion, but we think they thought it was worthwhile. Hope more of you can attend in October 2003.
