| Post subject: | Another Birthday Request - Happy 80th! |
Fellow Club Members, earlier this year in May I asked for members to send my father happy 85th Birthday greetings. The response was terrific and he printed and saved every e-mail he recieved. I am making another request. My father-in-law, Joe Becknell, turns 80 tomorrow. He is a retired Radioman Master Chief (E-9). He was an Indiana farm boy who joined the Navy during WWII to get off the farm. He was part of a beach communications unit that hit the beach in a follow up wave at Iwo Jima. He stayed on the beach for many days establishing comms with the ships off shore. Please send him a Happy 80th Birthday greeting on behalf of my wife and family. His e-mail is joecorky@knology.net Unless you have parents who use computers, you can't really appreciate what it means for our senior citizens to get e-mails. It will make his birthday just like it did my dad's. Many thanks. Very Respectfully, LTG L. G. Bertolino The Pelican State Brigade Commander, Bishop's Corps, AotM |
