I am beginning a TCAA Membership Recruiting Drive. Several thousand soldiers served in TC aircraft maintenance units from 1950's to 1988, including those in the 34th General Support Group and the 5th and 15th TC Battalions that supported the 101st and 1st Cav Divisions in Vietnam. If you or you know of anyone who served in these units, please direct them to our website www.TCAvnAssn.org and our Membership Form. It only costs $10 per year to join!
My request to the Fort Eustis Garrison Commander to allow the Army Aviation Heritage Foundation (AAHF) to participate in our TC Birthday Bash on July 31st has been approved. They will provide one UH-1H helicopter, free of charge to TCAA, to give rides to veterans and the public at Felker AAF.
They will charge vets $40 and non-vets $50.
Block your calendar for the TC Birthday Bash. The fun starts July 30th with a golf tournament. Saturday morning, while AAHF is flying its Huey at the airfield, the Army Transportation Museum Foundation (ATMF) is hosting its annual membership meeting. TCAA gives the first briefing at 0930; the history of TC Aviation. That evening TCAA hosts the buffet dinner at the Fort Eustis Club starting at 1800. I’m hoping TCAA members from across the country and around the world will participate !

A Hearty Congratulations to John "Gator" Hebert of our sister unit the 142nd Trans Co (AM&S)(DS) on his receipt of the Louisiana Veteran's Honor Medal. "Gator" is seen here with Governor Bobby Jindal and his Grandson Ryan after the April 23, 2010 ceremony in Houma, Louisiana.
Note: "Gator" was instrumental in helping get this site up and running. "Well done My Friend!!"
The Louisiana Veterans Honor Medal was created by Act 695 of 2008 Louisiana Legislature. The intention is to recognize and honor all Louisiana veterans. One side of the medal bears an outline of the state and the words, “United States Armed Forces.” The flip side reads, “Louisiana appreciates your service to our country.”
You can bet that Chloe is "Real" proud of Grandpa!!
