First Annual Christmas "Prop Blast" (7 December, 2002)


Due to a lack of participation the First Annual Christmas "Prop Blast" was scaled down somewhat. Gerry Peterson, Tim Waggoner, and Sam Kimpton had dinner at the Horse Brass Pub in Portland, Oregon. Topics of discussion included but were not restricted to matters of airborne history, equipment, living history, and the groups activities past, present and future.

Although the event was small, we all enjoyed one anothers company and had a good time. Several other members expressed an interest in attending but were not able to owing to other commitments.

Some thought is being given to organizing this event for next year so if you missed out this time there will be another opportunity.
