Monthly Luncheon

Our May meeting is off our normal meeting rhythm but is definitely a 'save the date' event! Please join us on 31 May at the Alaska Aviation Museum with WWII and aviation author Stan Cohen. He is the author of the series entitled 'The Forgotten War', a complete account of WWII in Alaska, including the contributions of the Army, the US Army Corps of Engineers and BB Talley's exploits and secrete missions. It is not too early to reserve your seat.

If you plan on attending, please RSVP to Carla Spires by Thursday, 24 May.
