Terry Carlson sent me these wonderful scans of the 223rd CAB's 1969 Yearbook. Take a look and see how many faces you recognize. You might be surprised!

Another 84G20 Has Been Found!
For many years I've wondered whatever happened to Dennis Wert, who was part of the Photo Lab for a very long time. After I DEROSed in June 1970 I lost track of him. Yet almost 40 years later on New Years Day I got this email from Chuck Gallagher:

We have found another old friend from the photo labs of the 225th. I could not wait to send you this picture [above] that Dennis Wert sent to me. I am going to make him a DVD of the photos he sent and then a CD of the images to send you to share on the 225th Observer web site.
Happy New Year
Chuck Galloway
I talked with Dennis a couple of weeks ago, and it was wonderful! He and Chuck sent some pictures which I have put into a slideshow below. The picture above is one I brought back with me from Phu Hiep...I didn't know that Dennis had one also. We are looking forward to seeing each other in Las Vegas on Veterans' Day 2011 at the 22nd Mohawk Reunion!
Jerry Murphy's Photos
It's been a while since I've posted anything on the 225th Observer, so I though I'd better get Jerry's photos up for all to see. Jerry was in Nashville last fall at the Mohawk Reunion, and it was great to see him! He sent his slides to Chuck Galloway who digitally transfered them so he could share them with you. He also had some movies of the company area transfered, but I haven't figured out how to get them on the web. As soon as I do I'll get them on the Observer.
Lots of memories came flooding back when I saw these pictures. Thanks, Jerry, for sharing these with us!
