The 2011 Reunion is now history! What a
great time and beautiful weather. The Cottonwoods was a fantastic venue and it was great to see old friends and make
new friends. We even found we had a few Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers look-alikes on the dance floor. Rumor
has it there will be videos posted here soon!
More than 250 Reunion pictures have been posted on our website.
Thanks especially to Joan Bellisario, Joe Vocks and everybody else who sent pictures in to be posted! Click

The Current Corps Chief, Gen Mike Miller,
gave us an entertaining, informative and well received update on the Air Force Medical Service and particularly
the Medical Service Corps.
MSC Corps Chief 15, Colonel Allen Middleton, now Deputy Assistant Secretary of
Defense for Health Budgets and Financial Policy, shared a view from "Inside the Pentagon" with his Situation Report
on Defense Healthcare. You will soon be able to download a copy of his presentation here.
Colonel
Allen Gilbar, Deputy Command Surgeon, AF Reserve Command, provided an update on Reserve missions and activities and ended
with a music and slide show shoing Reserve deployments around the globe.
Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio addressed
our group and kept us in stitches for over an hour! He brought along a pair of his famous "pink" underwear
and we auctioned them off to benefit the General Don Wagner Scholarship Fund.
Thanks to all of our presenters for
a wonderful program. We received many accolades about all the presentations.

job taking care of us over the long weekend!
