from your President

Dear MCB Ten Family,

Best & Safe wishes for 2025!! 

Our October 2024 Reunion in Warwick, RI was well attended by our MCB 1-9-10 family.  We were fortunate to again have great weather at the beautifully and recently renovated hotel where we had our 2013 Reunion.

– On the “time has come…” side, we had a ‘soft decommissioning’ of our Association at Warwick.   After 20 years, the time had come to wind-down the formal Association.  Time has taken a toll on your leadership and our many regular Reunion attendees.  MCB Ten was decommissioned in 1976 so the youngest veteran of Ten is now about 68; our core members are about 78 years old.

– We will continue to:

–  Participate-in & publicize our Reunions on our Facebook page (MCB Ten Reunion Assoc.) and     website    www.nmcbten.org

– Maintain our Facebook page, website and e-mail (mcb10reunion@outlook.com).

The mass (100+ names) e-mailings will wind down in 2025 since there is a system maintenance cost.

Questions or comments??  Call the (now former) officers or send email to mcb10reunion@outlook.com

For 2025, we move west to Branson, MO. Come and enjoy the comradeship of fellow Seabees and a the many entertainment venues:  Shows and  Attractions.

We have had great success using our Facebook page: MCB Ten Reunion Association (@nmcbten).  I encourage you to Like or Follow our Page. It is our most timely & responsive communication tool.

We still have a few collectors-quality MCB Ten Challenge Coin & Pin sets available.  The set (coin and pin) is only $20.  We also have MCB Ten hats available.

Send e-mail to mcb10reunion@outloook.com to inquire about our reunions, products or anything else.  Or, call me at 619-322-7104 (M).

In closing,  thank you for your continuing support of the MCB Ten Association and our annual MCB 1-9-10 annual Reunions.

Wishing you a safe & healthy year,

Bill
