I have a copy of the group photo for the last 401st reunion and I am wondering who might have a list of names to go with the photo?

Jackie,

Don't think they took a list as it was just mentioned for all to go to the place where the picture was to be taken and it was done and then they were out of their. Send me the picture and maybe I can point some out for you.

Don & Jackie:

Isn't this is a perfect item to post on this Web-site and have viewers able to add names they recognize in the (posted) photo? Can't we do that?

This should certainly be a Web-site model to be able to mobilize the 'knowledge-base power' of dang-near the whole 401BG Association, to be able to view-and-add info (to solve things like these).

Here endeth my soap box for the day.

Win,

What you describe is what a Wiki would be good for, which is why I support the idea of a wiki for the 401st.

And, on a political note... just not a wiki that isn't available for weeks at a time or suffers from sporadic availability issues. 🙂

Two centavos...

I will gladly post the photo when we have a way to do just that!

I will try to scan it this weekend...although I believe it used to be in the photo section, but I have not had time to look as my husband is still recovering from an accident 8 weeks ago.

I will try to scan it and send it on as soon as I can. I would just really like to know who all the people are.

And I agree...it would be wonderful to be able to have those who can, identify those in the picture.
