The day you stepped off that Huey and became a medic with 2/5th, a brotherhood was set in stone. We are bonded together forever. This is your chance to make our relationships grow into the future. Please don’t miss the opportunity to unite with your brother's of the late 60’s and early 70's. We are not getting any younger, now is the time. "UNDERSTANDING, will be the theme once again for this reunion. "We will grow to understand each other, because we were there in brotherhood."

James Machin "Tree" (C 2/5th1968-69) Reunion Chairman, and Reunion Co Chariiman "Doc" Vance Gifford (2/5th 1969-70) are inviting you to the C 2/5 1st Cav. Reunion. All Grunts, Medics, FO’s, Chaplains and attached personnel are welcome. There was no queston that the last Reunion was our best one and this time will be even better. New and Exciting things are planned. We are estimating 175 men from 2/5th, will be attending our 5th Reunion. So crack open that penny jar, or start one today.

Why Memphis you may ask? We are going to visit the Traveling Vietnam Memorial Wall. Thus the extra day.
