    Update:

    Brothers/Sisters, this year at the Sizzler we are attempting to reach new heights. One of the plans is to have a formation
    of all active duty and veteran attendee's...all wearing their unit head gear.

    This will be a great photograph to have and share with others. This will be done at the official opening ceremony.

    We are also working on a "Silent Auction". If you have something super cool and Military related that can be sold. Bring it.
    The funds raised for the "Silent Auction" will all be donated to The Paratrooper Association.

    For the Flag burning ceremony. A possibility of the local VFW "Honor Guard" lending some support.

    The VA Representative will also be there. If you have any questions, need help, or just want to talk. She has
    expressed her desire to attend, and be available for us.

    As a reminder for those who have already volunteered equipment, or anyone else willing to help. We want to
    have an Official memorial for our APO members who have gone to get their seat at the big table. sound off
    if you want to help.

    We need:

    rifle w/bayonet
    helmet
    boots.

    A Pic of brothers Big John, LZ NorthPole, and GreenBeret1631. Something we can put in a frame on a table.
    If someone was close to these brothers, and can email me a one page summary of the man...please pm
    me. We want to have the pics and summaries on a table by the memorial.

    Some have already volunteered this equipment. If their equipment is still available. Than we are good. This is more or
    less a reminder. Please help if you can.

    RH

    Can't wait. If we're still doing the flag detail. Same positions as last years plan, let me know if you need the procedures again.

    I hate to say this, but it's not looking good for my attendance at the sizzler this year either. I only mention this so that you can make other provisions for the items I am on the hook to bring.

    It's possible that I will be able to make it, but my situation evolves and I just can't say with enough certainty that such will be the case and I don't want to leave you in the lurch! The uncertainty sucks, but like every other paratrooper, I've learned to embrace the suck. I don't love it, but I can embrace it.

    So know that I'll be there if possible even though it looks doubtful at the moment. The matter is out of my hands. Xin loi...

    Brothers Shadow and Chief,
    When is a right time for mission recon on blessed Sizzler grounds?
    I'm all ready.

    Speaking of Flag Ceremony: I'm all onboard.
    Procedures saved and on hand.
    Need confirm on Flag stock.

    It is 95 days, 0 hours, 8 minutes, 13 seconds
    until Thursday, August 16, 2012 at 8:00:00 AM (Sizzler time)

    Hang on... I may have to rethink my status. Is she hot?
    We were the kids who would jump off a bridge if our friends did it.
