Ohio

The Ohio Squadron was formed in 2002, at Marion, Ohio, with 23 Vets. & Guests attending. It was held at Marion again in 2003, with an attendance of 45. Tom Indoe was commander for the 1st two years, and he resigned to travel. Jay Young was elected, and we voted to move the reunion to the Hope Hotel on Wright/Patterson AFB, Dayton, Ohio so we could utilize the Air Force Museum. In 2004 the attendance was 54, and we realized how lucky we were to have the Hotel and Museum. We voted to leave our reunion there indefinitely. In 2005 the attendance was 63, in 2006 it dropped to 46, and this year 2007 we had 79.

Officers at present are: Jay Young Commander, Joe Brembeck Vice-Commander, John Gray Secretary/Treasurer,

Hal Fulton and Ray Marcum are Reunion planners. They both are volunteers at the Air Force Museum at Wright Patterson
