On April 1, 2011, the Warriors Weekend held their Muster in Victoria. A table for 8 was purchased by the Port O’Connor Chamber of Commerce. Attending were Agnes Valigura, Barbara Crouch, Leah Griffin, and La June Pitonyak. This event was enjoyed by all. The sailor whose picture was on the cover of Life Magazine, kissing the nurse in downtown New York when the war ended was present. Two other gentlemen from this era were also in attendance. It was fantastic to see these guys in full uniform. The dinner was quite a spread and enjoyed by all.
Remember everyone, WARRIORS WEEKEND is coming to Port O’Connor–May 20-21—Mark your calendar! Come out to let the troops know how much we support and appreciate what they have and are doing to keep us safe.
