70th Anniversary of D-Day at Bedford, VA
« on: May 04, 2014, 11:03:29 PM »
I know it's early but is anyone going to this? I'd like to meet some fellow AH players, but I will be going for my late grandpa who was an Omaha Beach vet. Let me know if you're going, and if you're interested I know of a good place to eat lunch there called Liberty Station, it's a great place for food and there is a good chance you'll meet some vets there too.

Also there are some vets interested in going from my area, one in particular is Gene Thomas. Gene was won of the original "Toccoa Men" in the 506th PIR. He served in Able Company and is in the autobiography written by Donald Burgett. He's a great guy and has some very fascinating stories to tell.
