Dear Marine or Corpsman,
My name is Glenn Suire, and I am the Secretary for the 1st Battalion 4th Marine Association and served in Vietnam 1968/69 with Delta 1/4.
I am contacting you because our Association records developed by our Past President and Co-Founder Thurman Moore show that you may have served with the 1st Battalion 4th Marines in Vietnam, or you have attended one of our previous reunions. Our organization is celebrating 22 years of existence. Since our founding we have held annual reunions all over the country. Reunions for 2020 and 2021 were cancelled due to Covid concerns. The 2022 reunion was held in Orlando, and the 2023 reunion was held in Tulsa. This letter is to inform you about our next reunion to be held in Lafayette, La. 7-11 October 2024. Included in this mailing is a registration form, hotel information, and an itinerary. More information about our organization can be found on our web site: https://1stbn4thmarines.com.
Whether you can attend or not we ask that you contact us to update any information we have for you and to make sure we can put you in contact with any of your former buddies. My personal contact information is printed below.
The 2025 reunion location will be voted on in Lafayette. The three proposed locations are Chicago, Nashville, and San Antonio.
Our reunions are usually held in the August/September time frame.
We hope to see you at our upcoming reunion or at one of our future reunions. These reunions are a great way to find lost comrades or to associate with men who share many of the same experiences. We anticipate that there may be a time when we will no longer have reunions. Please consider attending while you can. Wives and girlfriends are always welcome and offer vital support for our group.
Sincerely yours,
Glenn Suire
