Picture was taken at the Nixon Library in Yorba Linda, California in May of this year at the dinner replicating the one held 40 years ago on The White House lawn, welcoming home former POWs. It was a great event and a wonderful reunion with many friends from way back when. And thank you very much for all the kind comments from all you good friends! John and Jo
