These pages are dedicated to the daily journal I kept during the 1st International Reunion of the U-Tapao  Alumni Association. I was the schmuck who decided he needed more stress in his life and decided to organize this reunion. I have a new appreciation for travel agents and the coordination techniques I learned have become  invaluable tools. The notes contained within are only my perspective of a meeting half a world away with people I had only known through e-mail. We shared a common bond of having spent time on the same base during  its active period. We now share an even deeper bond that can never be equalled or surpassed. I hope you enjoy reading my journal...
