"Hey Al,
Good point. However, I only have one spouse ( I realize you meant more than one attendee, It is too easy to be a smart alec). The penalty for bigamy is two wives.
Later,
Mac"

"Al - You thinking of this year or next for an unofficial reunion. I assume wives are OK (just in case we are a little more house broke than we were in 1978). Mac"
"Hey Mr. Mayor, I vote for the Beach, but will be happy to go anywhere. Mac"
"I left the Navy as an AE1 in 1982 to go to school. I was stationed at GITMO, VA-85, NAS Sigonella, and NAS Oceana. The Navy provided me with a wife, two kids, a house and an education (God bless the GI Bill). Life has been good, but I…"
"Hey Al,

"Hey Guys, From what I remember as an AE, all the tankers had blue (it was really blue instead of green) anti-smash lights. The also had side numbers beginning with 52X. I agree with Al, it was to help pilots find the gas station. I know I changed…"
"Hey Al, I remember that det was fun, but I forgot how short handed we were and how long the days were. We are still that young and pretty though. Later, Mac"
"Hey Rick, Yep, it's me. I tried to get up with you a few weeks ago, but I probably did something wrong. My Dad passed away a few years ago, so we don't get out there as much as we used to. Florida has been or home for the last 20 some years. We have…"
"Hey Rick - Happy Thanksgiving. Yep, Pony Joe was my grandfather. He passed away in 1983. We still miss him. Later, Mac"
"Hey rick, Me again. From your pictures, you are still as young and pretty as I am. Fort Meyers is a fun road trip for us. When you are down this way, give me a call, it would be fun to see you and Debbie again. We also have room for company here if…"
"I keep running out of space. My number is 407-463-5326, email mcdade.e@gamil.com. Mac"
"Hey Mitch,
Sorry it has taken a while to get back to you. We got wrapped around the axel buying a new house. We live in Central Florida, about 45 minutes from Daytona Beach. If you ever come down for Bike Week, you got a place to stay if you want.…"

"Hey Woody,
Good to hear from you. Glad life has treated you well. I've been in Florida, near Orlando for the last twenty some years. Married 31 years, a boy, girl, son in law, and two grandsons. This has been fun catching up with the old…"

"Hey Guys:
I'm up for a reunion any time. If we do it off season in September, we may be able to rent a beach house or two for a reasonable rate. Be cheaper than hotel rooms and easier to keep the party going.

"Hey Harv,
Good to hear from you. Thankfully, I'm a bit prettier than that poor fellow in the photo. I know exactly where Lebanon is. My brother lives in Greeneville. Been married 31 years now (6 of the happiest of my life - ha ha) 2 kids and 2…"

"Hey Al,
Thanks buddy. It has been a long time since someone called me Mac (except my wife). Kinda cool. This a great site. I forgot how much the Tankin 85th and all you scoundrels meant to me. Your pictures bring back lots of memories. I got to dig…"

Hey Mac,
I did get in touch with Felix awhile back but apparently he no longer has the same email address. My last email was undeliverable. I'm not sure where he's at but I'll keep looking.
I dont get on that often life is pretty busy live in upstate new york have two grown daughters an 2 grandkids.
I get around the country on my harley quite a bit both me and the wife ride hope we can get together some day with Al and the rest for a reunion.
I'm glad to see you found us here at NavyVets and welcome back to VA-85. I'm sure you'll recognize quite a few of us. Feel free to read through the comments and be sure to travel down memory lane as you see some old photos that we posted on our profiles. I know I have one of you, BB and myself. But if it's not within my profile, let me know and I'll be sure to upload it. And if you have any you want to share, don't hesitate...lets see em!
Later - Al
