NOTE: If you previously created a 68th AHC Association Profile when registering for previous Reunions you're good! This form is to be used by those Top Tigers and Mustangs who have yet to create their 68th AHC Association Member profile.

 

If you plan on attending the 2024 Reunion, please indicate your intent to attend by CLICKING HERE!


Expressing your "INTENT" to attend greatly helps the Reunion Committee in their planning to make this a great Reunion!

 

Once you have created your 68th AHC Association Profile other 68th AHC Reunion registrants can message you directly using this site. This is a great way to stay in touch with other 68th AHC Associations Members! While the registration form requires your mailing address and other personal identifiable information, be informed that info is NOT published.

 

It is used, however, by the planning committee for communication with attendees and administering Reunion fees. Your general location will be shown on the "where are they now?" map.


Once your 68th AHC Association  Member profile is created, you will be able to receive Association Reunion news and updates on all reunion happenings.

Comment: My year in VN was up in Oct 1968 but I extended 6 months in exchange for an early discharge. I made 3 (months). On may 23, 1969, my Mustang gunship augured into a rice paddy. Scott Alwin, George Manly, gunner David Deane were unhurt but I broke an arm. That arm paid for my college education as well as that of both daughters. Not a bad deal! LOL
