On February 25th, 2005, a Mini Re-union has held in New Braunsfels Texas at the home of James and Donna Irwin.

 

 

 

The Ladies, contemplating their good fortune to

have Marines in their lives.  The wives of Marines are a

special breed unto themselves.  Long periods of raising a

family by themselves while their Marine is Overseas, or in Combat.  Many

days alone while he is on duty for on a field exercise, Tad, etc, etc.  All

of these things have made them as tough as their Marine husbands.  Marines

are trained in the art of war, but because of the ladies we have learned

compassion.  The ladies are deserving of a special tribute and honor.

Though they are as tough as their Marines, they are in all things

true LADIES
