Armed Forces Day
11:00 A.M to 1:00 P.M.
Special Program Planned
We will have Veterans of our past Campaigns tell us about themselves and
about their commitment during our past conflicts.
Ken Griffin has agreed to give a talk about his ideas that deal with WW II
He is so sharp and we have discussed many thoughts and ideas about war type
situations
I will be pleased to represent the Battleship TEXAS for your Armed Forces
Day event on 17 May. Please let me know if you want me to give a talk or
just to provide a presence. Your email reached me after a couple of
forwards, so I'll also need to know where I'll need to be on the 17th.
Since I'm still new to the Houston area, directions on getting there would
also be appreciated!
Thank you for offering to include us in your event.
Sincerely,
Rusty Bloxom
Historian
Battleship TEXAS
By Carter Hydrick
A presentation of his book "Critical Mass: How Nazi Germany Surrendered
Enriched Uranium for the United States' Atomic Bomb" (coming out in April)
I would like to start a book (to be donated to the George Bush Library) of
the people that have served our country during Wars. Writing your name/and
your ancestor's name will leave a memory of their dedication and work. With
their name rank which conflict and unit, and if you are family of that
ancestor you could leave your name and address (phone or email if you want)
so that when people see your name and or unit maybe they can offer some
information about your loved ones.
Let us collect items to be sent to our troops from the people that live
here in Spring we have a few soldiers and or military personnel over there
protecting and serving.
The Men and the Women that have dedicated their lives to the service of our
great country are all heroes, giving of themselves with the full knowledge
theirs is a dangerous job,but doing it because they can and because their
comradeship serves a higher purpose.Come rejoice and celebrate all of our
heroes.
God Bless America God Bless Our President Bush and Support our
Troops all of them
Let us pray for them all
