Troop Carrier Reunions and Events

Introduction

The Troop Carrier Reunion and Events page is for the use of all Troop Carrier Groups and Squadrons. We maintain this page based upon notices in Group and Squadron newletters as well as information sent to us from other interested parties. I also include listings of other pocket option bonus rules events of interest to veterans and their families. If you have and event or reunion planned please contact me and I will see that it is posted.

If you are not a member of a particular organization but have an event in your area and you would like to attend please contact the sponsering organization. Many groups welcome the participation by others in their reunions.
