The Class 3/68 50th National Reunion is being held at Scheyville & Windsor on 23 – 25 November 2018 to celebrate the Class’s Graduation on 20 December 1968.

Planning is well advanced and the organising committee are trying to contact all class members.

Monthly Lunch – ‘Back to the Bistro’ – Wed 13 June 2018

Dear All,

Following our survey, we will return to the Bistro for our next lunch at 12.30 on Wed 13 June at The RACV Club 501 Bourke St Melbourne.

Remember, just tell the doormen that you are on our Group table, booked under Cooper and move straight in to the Bistro on the right.

As always smart casual attire, good humour, tales of daring, golf lies, exaggerated fishing stories are required. I expect that about $35 will seal it.

I will ask Ian Kelly, to distribute to the Vic membership at large.

We are about to commission the production of a Presentation History Board to the National Vietnam Veterans Museum on Phillip Island (same as the previous Boards presented to RMC etc) and need an OTU hat badge to complete  the content. Does anyone have a spare Hat Badge, it will feature in the centre of the Board and you will be able to tell the world it is yours when you visit the Museum!

Acceptances please by COB Mon 11 Jun would be appreciated. Please use ‘Reply’ not ‘Reply All’ to reduce electronic clutter 🙂

 

Regards
Brian
