Re: Forum Meeting!

Hello All,
I just got back from Michigan and am exhausted, but elated. I had a convention there (where I sign books, etc.) and am beat as there were about 10,000 attendees all weekend.

Going to Mark's house was truly the highlight and one of the best times I ever had. He was so gracious with us and time flew. I think it was around 1am when we left.

I was so excited to read his books that even though Saturday night is the night for all the exhibitors and pros to go out and party, I stayed in my hotel room and while the family played Yatzee, voraciously consumed Mark's "Avenging Eagles." The amount of knowledge he has for the 101st A/B is stunning and he shared so many stories and details of this hallowed unit and its men.

Again, my heartfelt thanks to Tom for setting it up. Mark for his generosity and of course Shannon just for a great time.

Thanks guys, my buddy Scott also couldn't stop talking about it all.

Now I've got to hoard away some serious cash to purchase one of Mark's original M1942 Jump suits.

What a collection!!!!

Visit Trigger Time and pick up his books!

All the Way,
Billy
