I'll
have transportation information shortly about getting in to DC (25 miles
from downtown). Also info on local restaurants and shopping.
I
have made preliminary plans for the Pentagon tour. My contact in the Pentagon
is an Air Force Colonel, but he will make arrangements for an artillery
officer to give us the tour. We may have to split in to 2 groups since
groups are currently limited to 20 persons.
We will spend one full day on the "grand walking tour", i.e,
the Vietnam Wall, the Lincoln memorial, the Korean war memorial, the new
WW II memorial and back along the mall to the Vietnam Wall.
Still working on either the Capitol tour or the White House
tour.
Working on the hats and T-shirts, they look good!

Monday, November 1st, PM: Arrival in the afternoon/evening at
the hotel in Gaithersburg, MD, about 25 miles north of downtown Washington
DC. Get-together for a social evening at the Cahn's (about 10 minutes
from the hotel), burgers and hotdogs on the deck in the back yard if
the weather is OK. Pick up reunion baseball caps/Tee shirts.
Tuesday, November 2nd, mid-morning to mid afternoon: The "big
walk", i.e., travel to DC, then visit the Vietnam Wall. Then walk to
the Lincoln Memorial, then off to the Korean memorial, then the trek
along the National Mall to the new WW II memorial. Then back to the
Wall. This is a beautiful circle around the historical mall, well worth-while.
Wednesday, November 3rd, daytime. Tram ride around DC, the touristy
thing to do. This will involve getting off at certain stops such as
Arlington Cemetary. More details to follow if a personal tour at the
cemetary is available for us. Evening, arranging for a cookout
at the Isaac Walton League for the Association Bussiness dinner. League
members may be able to host the cookout here as a small fundraiser for
them, but it will still be cheap eats. I will also make arrangements
for some limited use of the pistol range. Also looking to arrange for
a Washington Speaker.
Thursday, November 4th. Working on either a tour of the Capitol
Building or the White House. Details to follow.
Friday, November 5th. Working on a private tour of the Pentagon,
more to follow.
Your suggestions for other activities are invited and encouraged. There
is obviously enough to do in DC to occupy you for months, such as the
FBI building, Ford's theatre, the Washington Monument, the Jefferson
Memororial, the Supreme Court, the National Archives, the Smithsonian
museums, Air and Space, and on and on. We will build a good deal of
open time in to the schedule so you can make sure you get to see the
landmarks and attractions that are important to you. Please keep in
touch and help me tailor this event to meet all of our needs.
