50 Years - Half a Century
Recently, I heard a news story regarding the upcoming 50th Anniversary of the Arab-Israeli 6 Day War. Fifty years ago, I was in the U.S. Air Force Security Police stationed at Ramstein
Air Base in Germany (July 1966-June-1969).
Fifty years ago on this day, June 05, 1967, I volunteered for deployment to Libya to bolster security at Wheelus Air Base. Wheelus is located on the coast of Libya about 7 miles east of Tripoli.  At the onset of hostilities at the start of the 6 Day War, Wheelus experienced a number of incidents related to the situation. Egyptian sympathizers in the area felt the US was training the Israeli pilots. A mob of about 300 marched against the base, there were attempts to set fires on the base, the water lines to the base were cut and a number of American civilians and US Air Force personnel caught off base were beaten and their vehicles burned. The Air Force, sent 35 Security Policemen from each of 3 bases in Germany and 3 bases in England to Wheelus.   During the first few days, Libyan Police threw a number of hand grenades over the wall that surrounded the base. Tensions were very high but we were able to avoid an international incident. After about 10 days, tempers cooled and after 48 days we returned to our duty stations.

Just a very brief page in history 50 years ago today.

Noticed in the obit section on Sunday that the wife of Malcolm Walker passed away last week.  I believe they still lived in the Dallas area.

I feel like such a Ninny!!!  Trying to remember Barr's first name, then it came to me it was Brooks Barr.  Both Danny and Buzz worked on the Barr's home as they were all friends.  Forgive me for the interruption, I just wanted to be sure I put the right names in.  Wish there had been a way I could have edited my post, maybe Lynell can do it for me.

Gary and I were so surprised to hear about Danny Green's passing.  We would be there but Gary has a doctor's appointment regarding his surgery and rehab treatment.  I know Linda has been through this before with her previous husband Tommy Barr and Danny helped her get through the loss, repairing the house and roof for her.  At a time in their lives, Danny told us he fell in love with Linda, so changes were made in their lives.  Linda and Danny have been very happy together and she has taken care of him during his heart problems and surgeries.  God Bless all the family who loved and loves Danny Green.  He will surely be missed with his twinkling eyes and smile.

It's so sad to hear about Danny, who lit up so many lives with his little flashlights and his sweet personality. May Danny rest in peace and may those who loved him find comfort in memories.

I'm just now catching up with all of this news. Sharon, how is Steve now? And keep us posted about your family around Canton.
Good news about Gary and his shoulder. I had rotator surgery problems for years ago and before was very very painful. So I know he is relieved.
AND, great News about the "peach man" !! Haven't heard about him in a while.
Danny has my prayers. I pray for his comfort and strength for his wife as they go through this sad time.
All is well with me. I'm having an elevator installed in our Houston townhouse so that we can stay put in this 3 story house for a long time. fortunately, we had a place for the shaft. WHAT A MESS

It is so sad that Danny is suffering in this way, he looked so frail at our 70th Birthday Reunion, I was concerned then.  I pray that God won't let him suffer and he will give his wife the strength to deal with this.  God Bless them both!

 Danny was at all of our events till he got too sick to come. He misses us. I just found out he and Linda go to Dr. Dan Griffin's church and I know they are ministering to them. Dan was my pastor for many years.

It is with GREAT sadness I am sending you Linda Green's note about our SOC 63 classmate, Danny Green.

Hello Peaches I wanted to let you know that Danny is not well at all. He is not able to get up out of bed , he is not able to eat anything if it is not at least as thin as putting. He is not able to speak very well. Most of the time his speech is moaning and mumbles. From time to time you can understand some words. I do not know how long he will last in this physical state. I do have him at home. You and I both know Danny well enough to know that he would like his SOC family to know about his condition. And we both thank you and everybody else for the continued prayers

Just letting the class know that Gary did great through his right shoulder replacement and has suffered absolutely no or little pain since his surgery.  He said the pain before was worse that after the surgery.  He is doing his rehab daily and his exercises on schedule.  Said if he had known it would have removed his pain like this, he would have done it sooner.  Thank you for your prayers, he appreciates his classmates.

Does anyone know if Bob  ? our peach guy outside of Canton is okay?  His orchard is on Hwy 19 and I think that's where the tornado crossed I-20.

Hey, Larry.  All the Peden families in and around Canton are all fine.  Don't know about the Reeves clan yet.  But several cousins live directly in the area of Myrtle Springs which I know suffered a lot of damage.  I'm hoping to learn more later.  The woman who takes care of my mom during the day was actually on I-20 just a couple of miles from Canton and she and her husband watched the tornado cross I-20.  They have a house on Lake Fork and fortunately the house is fine but the debris will take a long time to clean up.  They were very lucky.
