0830 - 1700 Registration Open/SNAFU Desk Open.
Gentlemen, due to the usual SNAFU’s, our Squadron Hooch situation has been unfunded at this time. Thus, I am asking that as early as possible on Thursday afternoon, that the men of HMM-164 be called on to make a general donation to the Hooch fund for the operation and supply of our Hospitality Room and the required amenities. I will also ask for volunteers to accompany me to either the local Costco, Wal* Mart or if someone has the required lifer paperwork or passport, to the package store at M.C.R.D. for an initial supply of needed supplies to provision for the a successful operation of a Hooch or Hospitality Room.
1. Contact me at the hotel, as I should be arriving some time shortly after noonish with my wife and my POV. I am supplying an ample supply of all of the hard liquor one could ever want to souse themselves with.
• Jim Beam Bourbon whisky
• Johnny Walker Red Scotch
• J&B Scotch Whisky
• Jose Cuervo Gold Tequila
• Rot Gut Ron Rico Rum
• Gordon’s Gin
• Smirnoff Vodka
• And more!!!
2. If anyone has occasion to arrive earlier than I, we could use some one to assist in collecting any documenting any voluntarily said donations prior to my arrival.
Important Updates!
Be advised, as of September 5th, (yesterday) I successfully ended the search for and was provided the financial records and existing funds of the old HMM-164 Association. The monies were given to me in trust so as to try and attempt to reorganize and if possible breath some new life and interest in the HMM-164 Veterans Association which has seen dramatic dwindling of participants over the decades since its conception. This evinced by the last Squadron sponsored Reunion in Reno. I was authorized by the past trustee and treasurer, Joe James and by Phil Rogers to , as needed access the funds for our squadrons use at the current reunion upcoming in San Diego 11, Sept to 14 Sept. ’14. This was a great relief to me personally as I just recently picked up the task of applying chewing gum and bailing wire to our units pending plight in San Diego. All voluntarily donations will be used to stock the room with an adequate amount of refreshments: * Expected attendance of 18 – 20 members plus their guests and visiting Marines from HMM- 164 T.
