Plans are just being made at this time and we hope to get a head count in the next few months. You have plenty of time to make arrangements and plans. We hope to see the former members at NAS Patuxent River Maryland for the VXN-8 Reunion. Please see Facebook - VXN-8 World Travellers for more information..."

REUNION: "...I am curious as to how many ex-VXN-8 personnel would be interested in a Reunion. This one would be for the enlisted, as the officer community already has one of their own, which is not for the enlisted men and women. If there is enough interest I will persue this futher. Please let me know either by e-mail or phone. Home is 410-326-2074 work is 301-863-2453. Thanks folks..." Contributed by Howard Braden ADC (RET) hbraden@eaglenet.com [08JUL98]
