Farewell Banquet

Sid Brown's show

Dick Pittinger's show

Bill Janulin's show

A highlight of the Farewell Banquet was our acknowledgements and awards to all
Perry shipmates for services rendered beyond the 'call of duty'. As we concluded
our program, I was asked by Bob Hales to remain on deck for a moment. I was in
total shock and without words when Bob then presented me the beautiful replica model
of the pre-fram USS Perry DD-844. What a gift!!!  I will forever cherish this beautiful
memento and promise to share it with my shipmates for years to come.  
Thank you one and all
Steve Silk

Wow, what an experience !!!

We have always been lucky having a dynamic guest speaker
for our reunion. This time we were twice as lucky because
we had two of the most dynamic and patriotic speakers
any reunion would be proud to have.
