October 2002 Happy Halloween great '98! The seasons are just blowing by, but it sure doesn't feel like it out here in Hawaii. We just make ourselves believe that it really is October. Hopefully everyone is well, and I'll move right in to the letters for this month. David Coe was recently married to the former Beth Ruschmeier and sent in a great photo. Here is his letter: The summer back here in Hampton Roads has been great. We welcomed home Scott Walgren and Brian Love about a week after the wedding. Scott was deployed with a det from HC-6 an BATAAN and Brian was with WHIDBEY ISLAND. We are now anxiously awaiting the return of Brian Summers who is flying F/A-18s off KENNEDY. I am approaching crunch time for my PNEO exam and then back to the Jacksonville for another ten months. Congradulations to James Jones who just passed his exam last week. If you hadn't heard-Dale Matheny's exam went well, too. Congratulations to you, David, on the wedding and best of luck on your PNEO exam (which you'll most likely know the results of by the time you read this.) Front Row, L to R: Jessica Harper, Annie Ruschmeier, Rick Coe '95, David Coe, Beth Ruschmeier, Claire Ruschmeier, Rebecca Ruschmeier; Swordbearers, L to R: John Mentzer, Scott Grossman, Paul Lang, USCGA '99, Matt Janczak '00, Tim Limbert, Chris Handwerk '96, Henry Kayser, Brendan Mahon, Lenny Talbot, UND '97, Tim Joyce, UND '99, and Dale Matheny; Beth is the daughter of Steve Ruschmeier '72) and CAPT Elizabeth Ruschmeier (Ret.); also in attendance at the wedding were Steve Minihane, Cory Durant '99, and Chris Lepore '01 And that's all the news I have for you this month '98. I know our web site is not as up to date as CNN, but check back from time to time to find out about our five-year reunion, which is just around the bend. Plan on Labor Day weekend. My intent is to have it on that three-day weekend so more people will be able to attend. Catch you next month. Fair winds -DSF
