ATTENTION, PLEASE: IF YOU ARE NOT RECEIVING EMAIL NOTIFICATIONS: Many offical MAILCHIMP email signup contacts were removed due to bouncees/nondeliverability issues at the MailChimp site. If you are one of those individuals or family members, and are not receiving email notifications, please revisit the email signup page and reenter/resubmit your request to be on the list of your choice. You may also email me direct to discuss your non–receipt of notifications, but the only way you will get onto the lists is via the signup method. Don Ricks, Editor
Our veterans group mailing list is an opt–in/opt–out type arrangement. So long as you wish to receive our group email messages your contact information will remain in the MailChimp email box groups named: Longtrip Email List, Engr Email List, or Catkillers Email List. If you wish to no longer receive messages within any group mailing, just send me a private email and ask to be removed from the group, or opt–out when you receive a group email with an available unsubscribe feature. Again, if you desire to be included in a group’s email list, please complete a separate form for each group on the form and Subscribe. This is how we remain compliant with CAN-SPAM Act. Donald M. Ricks, Webmaster.

Our official point of contact for personnel information is Keeper-of-the-List, Don Ricks.
So, if you want an address of a friend, make changes to the roster, etc., just send Don an email:
We have placed, where known, a job next to each name, but we are not sure of all of them (corrections welcomed). The list is only as good as your input and corrections.
- If there is an "A" (in the 3rd column), there is an address.
- If there is an "E," we have an email address.
- If there is a "P," we have a phone number.
- Personnel on the list with a red background are deceased. Some have Virtual Wall links to further discribe their situation, if the were either MIA or KIA.
- Military wards above the Bronze Star, and special notations, if known, are indicated in the center field of an individual's line (e.g., Distinguished Service Cross (DSC), Silver Star (SS), Distinguished Flying Cross (DFC), with "Citation," if provided to the editor). These citation links ae blue and underlined.
The list grows and becomes better with each email asking us to add a name, so you can help out by bringing needed additions and corrections to the list. As we receive new addresses, etc., we will add them to this data base.
If you notice any incorrect information or want to add data or information, please submit the information to Don, who will see that the changes are reflected on this page. Thanks for your assistance and input.
PHOTO THUMBNAILS: E-mail or mail to me any photo, preferably approximately 150 X 150 pixels, at 72 dpi, and I will post it on your line.
