Article: PT Boat Officers hold Last Reunion

I found this to be a very touching article and one I think our members should all read.

Gary:
Just a wonderful group of Officers. What a shame that things for them have come to an end. It really puts a twist on it when you look at the ages of some of the surviviors. I have met Mr Paytner in Newport Rhode Island at my Exhibit last year. He is such a nice man. It was a good call on their part to give the money to PT Boats Inc., as the organization can certainly use the money to make sure those 2 PT Boats recieve the care they need over the years. Thanks for bringing this to our attention.
