B/3/20 Reunion

February 5, 2025

Hello Members and Friends of the Association,

*****************************************************************************************************************************************************************************

                             STANNNND UP!

 

 

Brothers: Sitting in the back of C-130 cruising at 1250 AGL and then to hear the Jumpmaster below out that command was the wake-up that it going to get REAL right now!   This Reunion is right around the corner so you need to STANDUP/HOOKUP and mark your calendars to be there.  

 

I want to say THANK YOU to the following individuals who have sent in their checks:

 

  • Bob Howell (1st check!) • Fred Raymond • Allen Bryant • Laurie Baird • “Big John” Harris 

 

 

So, what’s up with the rest of you???

Let’s get those RSVP’s in so we can make sure to have a good headcount for chow and setup.  

 

 

The new location is going to make the planning – and contingencies – way easier and definitely more comfortable - not to mention keeping the sun off our thinning hair and the rain off our shoulders.  

 

In case you forgot:

 

 

WHEN:  Saturday, March 29th, 2025 – 1200 -1700 hours

 

WHERE:  American Legion Post 26 (Plant City) 

        2207 W. Baker St., Plant City, FL509 N. Park Road, Plant City 33563.  NOTE: It’s just a little south of I-4 off the Thonotosassa Exit

 

PRICE:   $25 per person. 

Please make checks out to Chris Bell – for B/3/20 Reunion and mail to address shown below.

 

 

We are looking forward to this day of getting together and seeing our Brothers again.  Don’t hesitate to reach out to Darryl (813-833-4035) or myself if you have any questions or ideas… 

 

 

 UPDATE:  We have already received some AWESOME items for our raffle this year and there is even rumor of 2 weapons being donated.  More to follow on this.  

 

  

NOTE: For all you history buffs, 20th Group was officially organized on February 15, 1963 – so we’re 62-years old!
