Saturday evening started with a buffet meal for members, spouses and guests, followed by a short business session.
Following the meal and business session there was a memorial service for our fallen members conducted by the Rev. Jim Ackers. Jim is the State American Legion Chaplain for Kansas.
In the past the unit reunion has been held every other year with the Emporia group hosting the event for two reunions and then the Independence group hosting two reunions. Since 2008 is the 40th year since the unit was sent to Vietnam it was decided that Independence would not skip a year to host the next one and would have the 40th in Independence in September of 2008.
